HO SD70M Locomotive with DCC & Sound RJCC 50th Anniversary #1973 (ATHG-1614)

HO-scale SD70M locomotive with DCC and sound in the RJCC 50th Anniversary #1973 livery. This modern diesel packs authentic power and detail for HO layouts, powered by an onboard DCC decoder with SoundTraxx Tsunami2 sound. It runs on both DC and DCC, with full DCC functions when configured for DCC operation, and engine, horn, and bell sounds available in DC. A heavy die-cast frame supports a Genesis driveline with a 5-pole skew-wound motor, precision flywheels, and a multi-link drivetrain for smooth, quiet pulling. LED lighting and RP25-contoured wheels add realism and reliable track performance.

Details include a see-through cab with a full interior, fine-scale Celcon handrails, wire grab irons, lift rings, and walkways, along with a detailed fuel tank with gauges and breather pipes. Body-mounted McHenry scale knuckle couplers (Kadee-compatible) ensure realistic coupling, while the DCC-ready Quick Plug system with a 21-pin NEM connector simplifies setup on DCC layouts. The model faithfully reproduces the 50th Anniversary scheme and includes road-number specific detailing; minimum track radius is 18 inches, with 22 inches recommended for best operation on typical HO layouts.
