N F59PHI Locomotive with DCC and Sound SCAX #887 (ATH15971)

EMD F59PHI Locomotive with DCC and Sound, SCAX 887 is a detailed HO‑scale replica of the high‑speed commuter locomotive built by Electro‑Motive Division. It captures the lightweight, streamlined profile with an isolated cab and a finely painted, realistic finish. Fully assembled and ready to run, the model rides on a heavy die‑cast frame with all‑wheel drive for smooth, quiet operation, and it features LED headlights, see‑through cab windows, and authentic decoration. It runs on DC or DCC power and uses McHenry operating scale knuckles for reliable coupling to passenger cars, with a minimum radius of 9-3/4 inches to fit common HO layouts.

Sound‑equipped versions include onboard Econami sound by SoundTraxx and a DCC decoder, delivering engine, horn, and bell sounds that operate in both DC and DCC modes, with full DCC function control when in DCC mode. Slow‑speed performance is excellent, and many features can be tuned via CV changes; the model supports multiple‑unit lashups with lead unit horn and lights. It also showcases Legendary Liveries—iconic paint schemes that recreate popular railroading looks—while the F59PHI’s prototype history, including service with CDOT and Amtrak California, informs authentic decoration and convincing performance for realistic commuter rail scenes.
