{"product_id":"ath28659","title":"HO RTR SW1500 Locomotive Cotton Belt (SSW) #2481 (ATH28659)","description":"\u003cdiv class=\"product_description\"\u003e\n\t\u003cp\u003eThis HO-scale Cotton Belt SW1500 locomotive is a ready-to-run representation of the railroad’s first SW1500s delivered in 1968, capturing SP-era styling and detailing. It features SP-style lighting with a head-knocker gyralight, a P-3 horn, and a faithful exterior that includes Flexicoil trucks, footboard pilots, grab irons, early cut levers, and corner frame gussets. A 1,100-gallon fuel tank and a fully detailed cab interior add realism, while see-through radiator grilles and fine exterior detailing complete the look. Fully assembled and ready to run on standard HO layouts, it ships in window packaging that makes viewing the model easy while protecting it during storage.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\t\u003cp\u003eOn the performance side, this SW1500 is designed for modern layouts with options for DC or DCC operation. New features include operating ground lights, a more powerful and quieter can motor, and LED lighting for long life. DCC-ready versions offer a 21-pin plug for quick decoder installation, while sound-equipped models carry onboard Tsunami2 sound with dual cube speakers and operate on both DC and DCC (some functions are limited in DC; all functions are NMRA compatible in DCC). The locomotive features all-wheel drive and all-wheel electrical pickup for smooth operation, plus Kadee-compatible scale knuckle couplers, RP25 wheel contours, and a minimum radius of 18 inches, making it a versatile centerpiece for any HO rail yard or mainline.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Athearn (ATH)","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47906405908532,"sku":"ATH28659","price":219.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0597\/6653\/8292\/files\/ATH28659.jpg?v=1781651624","url":"https:\/\/nankinhobby.com\/products\/ath28659","provider":"Nankin Hobby","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
