HO RS-3 Locomotive with DCC and Sound NYSW #101 (ATH-2164)

HO-scale RS-3 Locomotive with DCC and Sound in NYSW #101 is a ready-to-run HO model that faithfully reproduces the ALCO RS-3 diesel-electric locomotive. This 1950s-era freight hauler is captured with prototype-accurate detailing and is equipped for modern operation with DCC and onboard sound, making it a compelling centerpiece for any HO layout.

Features include a DCC-ready Quick Plug 21-pin interface, Econami sound with a cube speaker, LED lighting, and see-through etched radiator fans and cab windows. The drive uses an all-wheel-drive setup with a heavy die-cast frame, 5-pole motor, and precision gears for smooth, quiet operation, with RP25 wheels for compatibility with popular HO brands. It ships fully assembled and ready to run, with a minimum radius of 18 inches and a 22-inch radius recommended for best performance. The sound-equipped version includes an onboard DCC decoder with Econami sound; it operates in DC and DCC, provides engine, horn, and bell sounds, and supports CV-based adjustments, with a CV chart included; packaging securely holds the model for safe storage.
