HO Scale brass diesel locomotive A/B unit set from Overland Models, representing Atchison, Topeka & Santa Fe Railway E1A and E1B passenger diesels. Overland Models (OMI) is recognized as one of the premier manufacturers of brass locomotives, known for exceptional mechanical quality, smooth operation, and meticulous prototype accuracy.
The Santa Fe E1 units were among the railroad's early streamlined passenger diesels, featuring the iconic Warbonnet paint scheme that became synonymous with Santa Fe passenger service. The E1A cab unit and E1B booster unit worked together to power the railroad's prestigious passenger trains across the Southwest. These elegant locomotives represented the transition from steam to diesel power and became symbols of modern railroading in the mid-20th century.
Overland Models' E-units are highly regarded for their smooth-running mechanisms, fine detail work, and accurate proportions. This A/B set captures the classic lines and stunning appearance of Santa Fe's legendary passenger power.
