HO SD45T-2 Locomotive with DCC and Sound (Bessamer & Lake Erie #905) (ATH86983)

HO Scale SD45T-2 Locomotive with DCC and Sound in Bessemer & Lake Erie livery, No. 905, is a detailed HO model designed for realistic railroad operation. It combines a six-axle diesel-electric chassis with an onboard DCC decoder and SoundTraxx Economi sound, letting you run it on both DC and DCC layouts and enjoy authentic engine, horn, and bell cues, plus full DCC functionality when in DCC mode. BLE-specific features—including a cab headlight with an upper gyralight, front ditch lights, MU catches on the pilot, and a Leslie 3‑chime horn on the long hood—help recreate the prototype’s distinctive look.

Beyond the electronics, the model emphasizes scale realism with fine-scale handrails, etched windshield wipers, see-through cab windows, LED lighting, and detailed undercarriage components. It runs on a six-axle chassis with all-wheel drive and a smooth, multi-link drivetrain for quiet, reliable operation, paired with McHenry scale knuckle couplers for prototypical coupling. Designed for HO layouts, it requires at least an 18-inch radius (22 inches recommended) to capture its full performance and appearance.
