HO RTR RS-3 Locomotive BN #4056 (ATH28680)

HO RTR RS-3 Locomotive BN #4056 (ATH28680)

HO-scale Burlington Northern RS-3 locomotive, road number 4056. This ready-to-run model captures the RS-3’s classic diesel silhouette in BN livery, offering authentic detail and dependable performance for mid-century freight or passenger scenes on an HO layout.

Under the hood, a robust 5-pole skew-wound motor with flywheels powers smooth, quiet operation, while all-wheel drive and electrical pickup help maintain steady power on varied track. The model features McHenry scale knuckle couplers (Kadee-compatible), fine-scale handrails, metal grab irons, see-through cab windows, and a see-through etched radiator fan for a realistic look. The injection-molded shell is highly detailed and hand-painted, and RP-25 wheels ensure compatibility with most HO track brands. It is DCC-ready with a Quick Plug 21-pin interface and LED lighting. Sound-equipped versions use Tsunami2 DCC/Sound with a cube speaker; engine, horn, and bell sounds work in DC, and all functions are NMRA-compatible in DCC. A newly designed can motor delivers more power with quieter operation, and the recommended minimum radius is 18 inches.
