N F45 Locomotive with DCC and Sound ATSF #5918 (ATH19178)

An N-scale Santa Fe F45 Locomotive with DCC and Sound, road number 5918, is a ready-to-run model that brings the distinctive F45 freight locomotive to life on an N-scale layout. It combines accurate styling with modern electronics to deliver realistic operation and authentic Santa Fe presence for your railroad scenery and performance.

Inside, a DCC decoder with SoundTraxx Tsunami2 provides engine, horn, and bell sounds, with full DCC functionality when operated in DCC mode and sound that also works in DC. The model rides on a heavy die-cast frame with a 5-pole motor, all-wheel drive and pickup for smooth, quiet pulling, plus scale detailing like see-through cab windows, a 4,000-gallon fuel tank, Celcon handrails, and body-mounted McHenry knuckle couplers. The Santa Fe livery features wide anticlimbers for an authentic silhouette, and the design supports MU lashups with a CV chart included; a minimum turning radius of 9 3/4 inches helps it run well on standard layouts.
