Nothing is better that a little midwestern steam on this lovely Throwback Thursday!

🚨 BIG UPDATE! UNION PACIFIC EXCURSION AUXILIARY TENDERS NOW $400 LESS! 🚨

We have some exciting updates to announce on our Golden Gate Depot Union Pacific Auxiliary Fuel & Water Tenders!

After further development and discussions with our team, we've decided to move forward with all new die-cast tooling for these highly anticipated O Scale tenders!

By utilizing die-cast construction with finely detailed brass components, we're able to maintain the exceptional detail and quality you've come to expect from Golden Gate Depot while making these models significantly more affordable and the ability to run them again in the future.

Here's what's new:

✅ $400 PRICE REDUCTION on the two-tender set!

✅ NEW MSRP: $799.99 PER SET!

✅ All-new die-cast construction with brass detail parts

✅ Operating lighting and rotating tender journals

✅ Available in both 2-Rail and 3-Rail configurations

These tenders are being developed to complement Union Pacific's legendary excursion steam fleet, including Big Boy No. 4014 and FEF-3 No. 844

For those who have already reserved a set, your pricing will be adjusted to reflect the new lower MSRP once we recover from York week...

We're excited to bring these unique and long-requested pieces of Union Pacific equipment to O Scale with the level of detail they deserve, at a much more accessible price.

Reserve your set today for a Spring 2027 Delivery:

Mollie Maddness Monday anyone?😉

Our blunami’d sample was a HIT at the York Train Fair over the weekend and yes, she currently wears an SP 6 Chime so with SoundTraxx Blunami’s extensive onboard whistle library, we can switch them on the fly 😎
