HO GEN GP38-2 Locomotive CSX Blue Down #2611 (ATHG-1389)

HO Scale GP38-2 Diesel Locomotive in CSX Blue Down livery, road number 2611. This highly detailed model faithfully recreate​s the GP38-2’s look and proportions, making it a realistic centerpiece for HO layouts and a capable performer on everyday runs.

Built for lifelike operation, it features a heavy die-cast frame for traction, a Genesis drive system with a five-pole motor for steady power, all-wheel drive with precision gears, and reliable electrical pickup. The model includes LED lighting, full cab interior, see-through cab windows, and fine-scale Celcon handrails for a true-to-scale appearance. A detailed fuel tank with gauges and breather pipes complements the realism, while body-mounted scale knuckle couplers and MU hoses add operational authenticity. Wheels use RP25 contours for compatibility with popular HO track, and the minimum radius is 18 inches, enabling use on most layouts. DCC-ready Quick Plug plug-and-play technology with a 21-pin NEM connector makes decoder upgrades straightforward, and some versions offer onboard DCC sound with SoundTraxx Tsunami2 plus dual speakers, operable in both DC and DCC.
