This fully assembled, ready-to-run model faithfully reproduces the Dash-2 freight hauler introduced in 1972 and celebrated for reliability and versatility. It rides on a heavy die-cast chassis with all-wheel drive and precision gears for smooth, quiet operation, while RP25 wheels ensure dependable tracking. Prototypical detailing includes see-through cab windows, a detailed fuel tank with gauges and breather pipes, separately applied air tanks, fine Celcon handrails, photo-etch windshield wipers, wire grab irons, and see-through dynamic brake and radiator fans, plus a frame-mounted bell and exhaust stack. Lighting features include bi-directional LEDs with ditch lights and beacons where applicable to the prototype, and the non-sound version is DCC-ready with a 21-pin NEM plug for decoder installation. Minimum radius is 18 inches, with 22 inches recommended for best performance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n \u003cp\u003eFor sound-equipped versions, an onboard DCC decoder with SoundTraxx Econami provides authentic engine, horn, and bell sounds that operate in both DC and DCC; some functions may be limited in DC mode, but all functions are NMRA-compatible in DCC. A single cube speaker delivers clear, proportional sound, and CVs let modelers tailor performance, with a CV chart included in the box. The locomotive features McHenry scale knuckle couplers, all-wheel electrical pickup, and a 5-pole motor with flywheels for steady, quiet operation. It ships fully assembled and ready to run in secure packaging, making it a faithful, operation-friendly centerpiece for Santa Fe fans on any HO layout.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Athearn (ATH)","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47906368782388,"sku":"ATH-1229","price":189.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0597\/6653\/8292\/files\/ATH-1229.jpg?v=1781646175","url":"https:\/\/nankinhobby.com\/products\/ath-1229","provider":"Nankin Hobby","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
