It arrives fully assembled and painted, with see-through cab windows and meticulously applied handrails, offering an authentic look straight from the box.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\t\u003cp\u003eUnder the hood, a robust 5-pole motor with precision flywheels and a multi-link drive delivers smooth, quiet operation, backed by a heavy die-cast frame for extra traction. The design includes all-wheel drive and electrical pickup for reliable power on a variety of layouts, plus LED headlights with optional ditch lights and beacons. The DCC-ready chassis provides a 21-pin NEM plug for DCC installs and sound upgrades, while nickel-plated, machined wheels with RP25 contours ensure smooth rolling on HO track. Horns and McHenry knuckle couplers are separately applied for authentic handling, and the body features Celcon handrails and wire-form grab irons for added realism. It handles minimum curves of 18 inches (22 inches recommended) and is offered in Legendary Liveries—the iconic paint schemes that celebrate railroad history—making it a compelling choice for both authentic rosters and proto-freelance schemes. Replacement parts are available to keep it performing well.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Athearn (ATH)","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47906376777780,"sku":"ATH-1529","price":219.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0597\/6653\/8292\/files\/ATH-1529.jpg?v=1781647322","url":"https:\/\/nankinhobby.com\/products\/ath-1529","provider":"Nankin Hobby","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
