OMI #AA-6822/ Canadian Pacific GP20C-ECO #2200-2229, factory painted, lettered, lights and ditch lights.

News Release from Overland Models - Dec 03/12 - Today we were treated to an early Christmas present with a group of beautiful new Canadian Pacific GP20C-ECO locomotives fresh out of the paint shop and under testing. 

The GP20C-ECO program is part of a large Canadian Pacific order for EMD ECO locomotives.  30 such units are on this order and currently in production in Muncie.  The frame, cab, hoods and fuel tank are all brand-new.  Many other components such as the DOFASCO trucks and prime mover have been refurbished and used so that just enough older product is used to consider them remanufactured.  As you can see the locomotive sports a long short hood and a long hood that looks much like that of a GP60.  The long hood also has a single chime horn at the rear as you can see in the 3rd photo below.

Overland Models intends to produce these locomotives in HO scale brass and will likely be a production for 2014 as we have to now build a project around these locomotives. We will begin accepting pre-orders for these units as OMI #AA-6822/ Canadian Pacific GP20C-ECO #2200-2229, factory painted, lettered, lights and ditch lights. Costs have not  been established and details will come along later.
