HO SD40T-2 Locomotive with DCC & Sound, PFG/UP #8802 (ATH71845)

An HO-scale SD40T-2 tunnel-motor locomotive with DCC and sound, finished in the PFG/UP Legendary Liveries paint scheme. This detailed model recreates the distinctive six-axle diesel and is designed for authentic operation on HO layouts or for display, capturing the character of North America’s famous tunnel motors.

Built for performance and realism, it features a six-axle chassis with a precision 5-pole motor, flywheels, and a multi-link drivetrain for smooth, quiet running, plus all-wheel drive and RP25-contoured wheels for reliable tracking. The DCC-ready design uses a 21-pin NEM Quick Plug for easy decoder upgrades, and sound-equipped versions include an onboard DCC decoder with SoundTraxx Econami sound that operates in both DC and DCC modes with full function control. Prototypical details such as see-through cab windows, photo-etched windshield wipers, fine-scale handrails, a hood-mounted Nathan 3-chime horn, front ditch lights, and a 4,500-gallon fuel tank enhance realism, while see-through dynamic brake fans and the distinctive rear radiator arrangement underscore the tunnel-motor look. The minimum radius is 18 inches (22 inches recommended), and the chassis can accept a Genesis motor retrofit kit for even higher performance.
