HO SD40 Locomotive Colorado & Southern #877 (ATH87233)

An HO-scale SD40 diesel locomotive modeled after Colorado & Southern's fleet, a ready-to-run replica designed for HO-model railroad layouts. Fully assembled and finished with realistic lettering and color, it serves as a lifelike centerpiece for freight operations on a home layout.

Designed for authentic operation, the model features chicken wire radiator grills, MU hoses, see-through dynamic brake, radiator fans, and cab windows, along with finely detailed handrails and photo-etched stainless steel windshield wipers. It rides on Flexicoil-C trucks with RP25 wheels and uses McHenry scale knuckle couplers for reliable coupling. DCC-ready Quick Plug plug-and-play enables easy digital setup, and sound-equipped versions include Tsunami2 sound with dual cube speakers for engine, horn and bell sounds across DC and DCC. A newly designed can motor delivers stronger, quieter performance, while minimum radii of 18 inches (22 inches recommended) keep operation smooth on typical HO layouts.
