HO Scale, DCC Ready

A signature diesel for your HO railroad, the WalthersProto GP9 Phase II with Low Hood is a real workhorse! With revised tooling and road-specific details, the models are based on prototypes built from 1955 to 1957 (known to modelers and railfans as the "phase two" version), and many are still in service today.
