This is Kato 37-6392 HO UP SD90/43MAC #8164. While originally designed to house a 6000hp engine, technical difficulties resulted in many SD90MACs being equipped with a 4300hp engine instead, which gave them the designation SD90/43MAC. The locomotives were reliable and effective enough with these engines that though the option to upgrade was given, most locomotives kept the as-shipped 4300hp AC traction engine.
Today, the Union Pacific operates the largest fleet of SD90MAC units in America, all running on the revolutionary HTCR-II radial truck, making them some of the largest and most powerful locomotives on the rails.
Its key features are:
Locomotive feature directional Golden White LED headlights and ditch lights
Powerful five pole motor with brass flywheels and all-wheel electrical pickup from scale 42” blackened metal wheels
Comes with a number of consumer applied detail parts such as individually molded windshield wipers, MU hoses, and grab irons
”Drop-in” DCC friendly with a NMRA standard 8-pin plug for easy DCC upgrading
