The MP15AC is a 1500 horsepower “yard goat” built by EMD between 1975 and 1984. Many examples of this locomotive remain in service. Though generally used as a yard switch engine, they can sometimes be seen doing yard to yard car movements and switching cars on smaller secondary and branch lines. Add one of these distinctive units to your motive power for variety and realism.
