Shop Athearn Genesis HO Scale EMD GP15-1 Locomotives at Fusion Scale Hobbies. These premium HO scale diesel locomotives recreate EMD's versatile GP15-1 with extensive prototype-specific detailing, road-name-specific features, Genesis-level construction, smooth operating characteristics, and available DCC/Sound.
The EMD GP15-1 is a four-axle diesel-electric locomotive built by General Motors Electro-Motive Division between 1976 and 1982. Designed as an alternative to rebuilding aging first-generation road switchers, the GP15-1 became well suited to yard switching, local freight, branchline, and light road assignments. A total of 310 GP15-1 locomotives were produced, with examples continuing to find work long after their original railroad careers.
Athearn Genesis GP15-1 locomotives feature road-specific details along with operating number boards, coupler cut levers, MU hoses, trainline hoses, a full cab interior, windshield wipers, wire grab irons, lift rings, sander lines, and fine-scale handrails. Underneath, the Genesis driveline combines a 5-pole skew-wound motor, precision-machined flywheels, and a multi-link drivetrain with all-wheel drive and electrical pickup for smooth, reliable operation.
