Standard DC (Pre-Order)
Walthers # 910-10472 Road #5985
The WalthersMainline Phase II High-Hood GP9 is outwardly similar to the earlier GP7, and
sharing the same boxy, no frills body with its high, short hood, minor
production changes in the number and placement of louvers on locomotives
built from 1955 to 1957 resulted in what modelers and railfans refer to as
"phase two" GP9s.
