HO GP38-2 Locomotive Sound-Ready with Speaker CN #4707 (ATH72205)

This HO-scale GP38-2 locomotive is sound-ready with a speaker, designed for HO-layout enthusiasts who want authentic diesel sound and straightforward operation. Fully assembled and ready to run, it features LED headlights, ditch lights, and beacons (where applicable) and a DCC-ready 21-pin plug for easy digital control. A robust 5-pole motor with precision flywheels and a multi-link drive train delivers smooth, quiet performance, while a heavy die-cast frame provides traction and durability.

Prototype-level detail includes Celcon handrails, individually applied wire-form grab irons, separately mounted horns, and McHenry operating scale knuckle couplers. Nickel-plated machined wheels with RP25 contours ensure reliable tracking on popular HO track, and see-through cab windows paired with a painted, printed body enhance realism. Designed for versatile use on HO layouts, it supports curves with a minimum radius of 18 inches (22 inches recommended) for smooth operation and convincing railroading scenery.
