{"product_id":"athg-1670","title":"HO P42DC Locomotive AMTK Phase III #78 (ATHG-1670)","description":"\u003cdiv class=\"product_description\"\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003eHO-scale Amtrak P42DC Genesis locomotive, Phase III #78 — a detailed Amtrak-painted model designed to capture the Genesis-era power on HO layouts. Officially licensed by Amtrak, this Phase III unit features four distinctive nose variations (as-delivered with strobes, as-delivered without strobes, rebuilt nose, and Via Rail) and authentic cab interior and antenna layouts. LED headlights, ditch lights, and front and rear marker lights illuminate the locomotive, while a redesigned die-cast frame and highly detailed undercarriage deliver convincing tractive effort. Fully assembled and ready to run, it makes a compelling centerpiece for Amtrak-era passenger trains.\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003eOn the rails, the Genesis model supports both DC and DCC operation, with DCC-ready Quick Plug 21-pin connectors and, in sound-equipped versions, a SoundTraxx Tsunami2 decoder with dual speakers. Prototypical features include per-road-number antenna arrangements, nose configurations, and authentic artwork, plus McHenry scale knuckle couplers, RP25 wheels, all-wheel drive, and reliable current pickup. Road-number options span Phase III and Phase IV schemes (including #78 and NE Corridor numbers like #101, #105, #111), plus Via variants, reflecting Amtrak’s roster. A minimum 18\" radius is recommended, with 22\" suggested for best curve performance on HO layouts.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Athearn Genesis (ATHG)","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47610587807796,"sku":"ATHG-1670","price":182.6,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0597\/6653\/8292\/files\/ATHG-1670.jpg?v=1774302584","url":"https:\/\/nankinhobby.com\/products\/athg-1670","provider":"Nankin Hobby","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
