Premier Line O Scale Union Pacific DDA40X Diesel Paint Scheme Update

June 1, 2016 - M.T.H. Electric Trains is revising one of the Union Pacific DDA40X diesel locomotives offered in the 2016 Volume 1 Catalog to reflect the Union Pacific's 150th Anniversary paint scheme when Cab No. 6936 led some of the 2012 Anniversary trains. Though the Anniversary scheme is not terribly different from the standard DDA40X scheme originally promoted in the 2016 Volume 1 Catalog, it does offer U.P. fans a chance to own a locomotive that had a hand in promoting the railroad's incredible 150 years of service. Check out the differences in the photos below.
