HO RTR SD38 with DCC & Sound, GTW #6251 (ATH88936)

HO-scale Ready-to-Run SD38 diesel locomotive with DCC and sound in Grand Trunk Western livery, road number 6251. This six-axle EMD SD38 model is designed for model railroading, delivering authentic GTW styling and reliable, smooth operation on HO layouts with integrated sound for on-layout realism.

Key details include a full GTW repaint, standard EMD exhaust stacks, and a front small plow with an 81-inch nose for an accurate silhouette. Separately applied wire grab irons, see-through cab windows, and a painted, printed exterior add realism to the model, while a DCC-ready 21-pin NEM plug and onboard Econami Sound by SoundTraxx provide engine, horn, and bell sounds that operate in both DC and DCC. The locomotive features bi-directional lighting, McHenry scale knuckle couplers, RP25 wheel contours, all-wheel drive with a 5-pole motor and flywheels for smooth, quiet operation, and a recommended minimum radius of 22 inches for reliable performance on typical layouts.
