HO EMD SD40-2 Locomotive with DCC and Sound, MP #3153 (ATH-1270)
HO scale EMD SD40-2 locomotive with DCC and sound, fully assembled and ready to run on standard HO layouts. This model captures the Dash-2 era with a detailed shell and a SoundTraxx Econami decoder that brings engine, horn, and bell sounds to life, while bi-directional LED headlights and ditch lights add realism for day and night operation.
Built on a heavy die-cast frame with all-wheel drive and precision gears for smooth, quiet pulling power on HO track, it features see-through cab windows, a detailed fuel tank with gauges, and fine-scale Celcon handrails. The sound-equipped version uses a single cube speaker for clear, powerful sound and operates in both DC and DCC, with some functions limited in DC but full NMRA-compatible function control in DCC. Flexible MU hoses, RP25-wheel contours for track compatibility, and the ability to run MU lashups make it ideal for realistic operation on layouts with minimum radii of 18 inches (22 inches recommended).
