Union Pacific C44 – Operation Lifesaver

In 1972, the Union Pacific Railroad launched Operation Lifesaver, a national initiative dedicated to rail safety education. Their mission: “Stop. Look. Listen.”, has since become one of the most recognized safety messages in railroading. Our UP C44 Operation Lifesaver locomotive honors that legacy with a bold and meaningful design. This model represents the many locomotives painted in special safety liveries and sent across the country to teach schools and communities about railroad safety. A striking centerpiece for any wooden layout, this engine combines beauty, power, and purpose. A train with a story worth sharing. Handcrafted in the USA using durable hardwood, this locomotive is built to last for generations.
