HO SD40 Locomotive with DCC and Sound Santa Fe #5002 (ATH87324)

An HO-scale Santa Fe SD40 locomotive with DCC and sound, number 5002, brings authentic late-1960s motive power to HO layouts. Dressed in the era’s Pin Stripe paint scheme with a rooftop Stratolite beacon, the model captures Santa Fe detailing—from see-through cab and dynamic brake windows to fine handrails and etched windshield wipers. It’s built for reliable running on standard HO track, with McHenry scale knuckle couplers (Kadee-compatible), all-wheel drive for smooth, quiet operation, and a DCC-ready Quick Plug interface for easy integration on modern layouts.

Sound-equipped versions feature an onboard Tsunami2 DCC/Sound decoder with dual cube speakers for crisp engine, horn, and bell sounds in both DC and DCC modes. In DCC, all functions are NMRA-compatible and highly customizable via configuration values (CVs), with a CV chart included. The upgrade includes a newly designed can motor for more power and quieter operation, LED lighting, and detailed features such as see-through dynamic brake and cab windows, etched windshield wipers, and separately applied air tanks. Fully assembled and ready to run, it delivers prototypical Santa Fe performance with modern detailing for a compelling operating experience on any layout.
