HO Old Time 2-8-0 Locomotive with DCC and Sound D&RGW #944 (ATH85011)

HO-scale Old Time 2-8-0 steam locomotive with DCC and sound in the D&RGW livery (road number 944) is a ready-to-run model designed for authentic freight-hauling on HO layouts. It combines a heavy die-cast frame with all-wheel drive and a precision five-pole motor for strong pulling power and smooth, quiet operation. Realistic details include see-through cab windows, wire-form accents, a smoke stack, and a boiler-mounted bell, plus McHenry operating scale knuckle couplers and nickel-plated machined wheels with RP25 contours for reliable tracking on common HO track.

With DCC-ready electronics and a 21-pin plug, the sound-equipped version includes an onboard DCC decoder with SoundTraxx Ecomani sound that works in both DC and DCC and offers full DCC functionality, precise slow-speed control, and MU lashups with adjustable CVs (CV chart included). Bi-directional LED lighting keeps the headlight bright in either direction, and the model is designed for HO curves with a minimum radius of 18 inches and a 22-inch radius recommended. Fully assembled and decorated, this locomotive delivers a classic freight-hauler presence with modern reliability.
