Why this kit matters

The EMD SD60 was developed by Electro-Motive Division as part of a new generation of high-horsepower freight locomotives introduced in the 1980s. It was designed to improve reliability and fuel efficiency for heavy freight services across long-distance rail corridors in North America.

Oakway Leasing operated locomotives such as SD60 #9000 as part of pooled freight operations, supplying power to multiple railroads. These locomotives often appeared in mixed consists across the United States, making them a familiar sight in modern diesel railroading.

How to use it

Run on standard HO DC layouts. Pair with freight consists such as covered hoppers, boxcars, and intermodal wagons for realistic train formations.

This is a plastic model kit. Assembly, paint, and glue are required. It is not a toy.
