HO SD40T-2 Locomotive PFG/UP #8855 (ATH71746)

HO scale SD40T-2 Locomotive in UP/PFG livery is a meticulously detailed, ready-to-run model that brings the legendary tunnel-motor era to HO layouts. Painted in the UP/PFG scheme as part of Legendary Liveries, this six-axle diesel-electric captures the prototype’s distinctive silhouette with a finely detailed injection-molded body and see-through cab windows that invite close inspection.

Built for serious operation, it blends authentic prototype features with dependable performance. Highlights include fine-scale handrails, photo-etched windshield wipers, separately applied air tanks, LED lighting, and see-through radiator features, all riding on nickel-plated, blackened machined wheels with RP25 contours. The drive uses a robust 5-pole motor with flywheels and a multi-link drivetrain for smooth, quiet running and it can accept a Genesis motor retrofit kit for higher power. DCC-ready with a 21-pin NEM Quick Plug, and, in sound-equipped versions, on-board SoundTraxx Econami sound that works in both DC and DCC, delivering engine, horn, and bell sounds with full function control in DCC. McHenry operating-scale knuckle couplers enable reliable MU lashups, while the minimum 18" radius (22" recommended) keeps operation smooth on typical HO layouts.
