HO P42DC Locomotive AMTK Phase V Low Wave #123 (ATHG-1675)

HO scale Amtrak P42DC Genesis locomotive in Phase V Low Wave livery — unit #123. This highly detailed, officially licensed model recreates Amtrak’s Genesis for HO layouts, capturing the Phase V Low Wave look with authentic antenna configurations and four nose variations (as-built with strobes, as-built without strobes, rebuilt, and Via). It features LED headlights, ditch lights, and marker lights, plus a redesigned die-cast frame and a richly detailed undercarriage with piping, air filters, and air dryer. RP25-wheel trucks with McHenry scale knuckle couplers ensure compatibility with standard HO rolling stock, and the locomotive arrives fully assembled and ready to run.

On the electronics side, the model offers DCC-ready Quick Plug technology with a 21-pin NEM connector, and sound-equipped versions include a SoundTraxx Tsunami2 decoder with dual speakers for realistic engine, horn, and bell sounds that operate on both DC and DCC. Full DCC functionality is available in DCC mode, with features such as ditch lights that can alternate with the horn and independently controlled marker lights. The Genesis driveline combines a 5-pole skew-wound motor, precision flywheels, and a multi-link drivetrain for smooth, quiet operation, all supported by a redesigned die-cast frame and reliable all-wheel electrical pickup. A CV chart is included to help tailor performance, and the model is designed for HO layouts with a minimum radius of 18 inches (22 inches recommended), ready to enhance any Amtrak-era roster.
