Athearn Genesis 2.0 G75546 HO Scale SD60M Tri-Clops Hudson Bay HBRY 6001

In 1984, EMD unveiled the first four SD60 demonstrator locomotives. The SD60 was equipped with a 3,800 horsepower, 16 cylinder, turbocharged 710G3A prime mover. Five years later, EMD began offering the SD60 with the wide nose “safety” cab with the infamous “Tri-Clops” 3-piece windshield, thus creating the SD60M. The term “Tri-clops” is a popular railfan nickname that refers to the original 3-window cab design.

The Hudson Bay Railway is a Canadian short line formed in 1997 operating between Saskatchewan and Manitoba. It operates over 810 miles of former CN trackage. Recently, HBRY have been upgrading their locomotive fleet with ex UP SD60M’s painted into this beautiful blue and grey scheme.
