KATO USA Model Train Products EMD GP35 #6126 Phase La New York Central Train  (Multicolor)

The EMD GP35 is a 4-axle diesel locomotive manufactured between 1963 and 1965. More than 1200 locomotives were built for US Canadian and Mexican railroads in those brief years as many railroads were upgrading from older EMD F units or Alco locomotives. Originally designed for General Purpose (hence GP) mainline duties over the long lifespan of these locomotives they saw service in everything from mainline operation to switching and branch line service. There were numerous phase variations of the GP35 each with minor spotting differences such as number and locations of hood latches and louvers as well as differences between fuel tank frames.
