HO GE Dash 9-44CW Locomotive with DCC and Sound, CN #2510 (ATHG-1226)

An HO-scale GE Dash 9-44CW locomotive with DCC and sound is a highly detailed, ready-to-run model for serious HO layouts. It faithfully recreates CN’s Dash 9-44CW, combining prototype accuracy with modern electronics for realistic operation on both DC and DCC layouts.

Highlights include LED lighting with ground lights above the front trucks, front and rear walkway lights, and number boards, plus etched see-through walkway steps and a full cab interior visible through see-through cab windows. The Genesis driveline uses a five-pole skew-wound motor, machined flywheels, and a multi-link drivetrain for smooth, quiet power, with all-wheel drive and all-wheel electrical pickup. Fine-scale Celcon handrails, RP25-contour wheels, and body-mounted scale knuckle couplers enhance realism, while a detailed fuel tank with fillers, gauges, and breather pipes adds prototype accuracy. The model carries onboard DCC with Tsunami2 sound and dual speakers, supports both DC and DCC operation with full DCC functions, and is ready for simple decoder upgrades via Quick Plug 21-pin NEM compatibility. Minimum operating radius is 18 inches, with 22 inches recommended for smooth performance on typical HO layouts.
