The GP20 is a four-axle road switcher with a turbocharged 567D2 engine, capable of producing 2000 horsepower.  Two prominent features of the original GP20s are dynamic brakes and a low, short hood that tapers away from the front of the cab.  Between November of 1959 and April 1962, EMD produced 260 of these locomotives, which were originally sold to eight US railroads.  GP20s made their way to many railroads, and several are still operating today on short lines in the US. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Industry-leading Model Features:\u003cbr\u003e Paragon4 Sound \u0026amp; Control System featuring ROLLING THUNDER\u003cbr\u003e Paragon4 Features Built-In Capacitor Pack for Steady Electrical Pick-up\u003cbr\u003e Integral Dual-Mode Decoder with Back EMF for Superb Slow Speed Operation in DC and DCC\u003cbr\u003e Precision Drive Mechanism Engineered for Heavy Towing and Smooth Slow Speed Operation\u003cbr\u003e 5-Pole Can Motor with Skew Wound Armature\u003cbr\u003e All Wheel Electrical Pick-up\u003cbr\u003e ABS Plastic Body with Die Cast Chassis\u003cbr\u003e Premium Caliber Painting\u003cbr\u003e Prototypically Accurate Paint Schemes and Road Numbers\u003cbr\u003e Road-specific Details Accurate for Each Paint Scheme\u003cbr\u003e Many Separately Applied Details such as Handrails, Grab Irons, Fans, Sunshades, Antennas, and More!\u003cbr\u003e Factory-Installed Engineer Figure\u003cbr\u003e Prototypical Light Operation Accurate for each Railroad\u003cbr\u003e Prototypically Accurate Sounds for the EMD GP20\u003cbr\u003e Metal Kadee-compatible Couplers (2)\u003cbr\u003e Will Operate on Code 70, 83, and 100 rail\u003cbr\u003e Minimum Operating Radius: 18\" \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Road-Specific Detail Variations Accurate for Each Paint Scheme:\u003cbr\u003e Horn Type and Location\u003cbr\u003e Appropriate Truck Sideframes\u003cbr\u003e Fuel Tank Details\u003cbr\u003e Appropriate Sunshade and Wind Deflector Options\u003cbr\u003e Dynamic Brake Option Where Appropriate\u003cbr\u003e Accurately Modeled Cab Window Armrests\u003cbr\u003e Cab Roof Antenna Location and Type\u003cbr\u003e Rotary Beacon Where Appropriate\u003cbr\u003e Front Headlight and Gyralight Arrangement\u003cbr\u003e SP Light Package Present on SP and SSW Models\u003cbr\u003e Short Hood Steps and Grab Irons\u003cbr\u003e Rear Numberboard Type and Location\u003cbr\u003e Radiator Fan Type\u003cbr\u003e Winterization Hatch Present Where Appropriate\u003cbr\u003e AC on Cab Roof on Several Models\u003cbr\u003e MU Receptacle Variations\u003cbr\u003e Two Types of Turbo-Charger\u003cbr\u003e Bell Location\u003cbr\u003e Air Filter Box Present Where Appropriate\u003cbr\u003e Separately Controllable Headlight, Rear Light, Cab Light, Class Lights, and Numberboard Lights \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Broadway Limited Imports is proud to introduce Paragon4: The new benchmark for premium HO sound-equipped locomotives.
