HO 2-6-0 Steam Locomotive MEC #247 (ATH87242)

HO Scale 2-6-0 Mogul Steam Locomotive MEC 247 is a ready-to-run HO model that faithfully recreates the classic Mogul wheel arrangement. Designed for branch-line service on HO layouts, it arrives fully assembled and painted with see-through cab windows and a highly detailed body for a lifelike presence on the railroad. It runs on HO track with an 18-inch minimum radius and a 22-inch recommended radius for smooth operation.

Under the hood, a heavy die-cast frame and a 5-pole motor with precision flywheels deliver dependable traction and smooth performance, while two traction tires boost pulling power and electrical pickup extends from all drive wheels and tender wheels to keep power steady. McHenry operating scale knuckle couplers and a DCC Ready 21-pin plug add prototypical operation and versatility, and nickel-plated, blackened machined wheels with RP25 contours ensure compatibility with popular HO equipment. Sound-equipped variants feature an onboard DCC decoder with SoundTraxx Econami sound, DC and DCC operation, full DCC functions, and slow-speed control; CV changes offer customization, with a CV chart included to help dial in the exact performance.
