HO SD40T-2 Locomotive with DCC and Sound, D&RGW #5410 (ATH71854)

HO-scale SD40T-2 Tunnel Motor Locomotive with DCC and Sound in D&RGW #5410 is a detailed, ready-to-run model designed for HO layouts that crave authentic operation. This six-axle diesel-electric captures the prototype’s famous tunnel-motor cooling upgrades, including rear radiator intakes and grills. The locomotive comes with an onboard DCC decoder and SoundTraxx Econami sound, delivering lifelike engine, horn, and bell sounds, and it can run on both DC and DCC for flexible use. It also features a 21-pin NEM Quick Plug for easy DCC system compatibility.

Inside and out, it’s built for realism and smooth performance: LED lighting, fine-scale handrails, see-through cab windows, photo-etched windshield wipers, and separately applied air tanks add to the model’s authentic look. Nickel-plated, blackened wheels with RP25 contours ensure reliable tracking on HO track, while McHenry scale knuckle couplers provide prototypical operation. The chassis uses a 5-pole motor with flywheels and a multi-link drivetrain for quiet, steady running, and the frame can accept a Genesis motor retrofit kit for an extra boost of power. For collectors and enthusiasts, Legendary Liveries offer iconic paint schemes that celebrate “what-if” histories, making this D&RGW #5410 model a striking centerpiece on any roster.
