HO P42DC Locomotive with DCC and Sound AMTK Phase V 'Low Wave' #162 (ATHG-1695)
HO-scale P42DC Locomotive with DCC and Sound in Amtrak Phase V 'Low Wave' livery. This HO model recreates Amtrak’s Genesis passenger locomotive and is built to deliver authentic operation and appearance for long‑distance or regional passenger service. Ready to run, it includes onboard DCC and a SoundTraxx Tsunami2 sound decoder for lifelike engine rumble, horn, and braking sounds that bring Amtrak‑era railroading to life.
Inside, the model houses a DCC decoder with Tsunami2 sound and dual speakers, delivering rich audio and enabling operation on both DC and DCC. Lighting includes LED headlights, operating ditch lights that can alternate with the horn, and red marker lights, with illuminated number boards for added realism. The locomotive uses a redesigned die-cast frame for strong tractive effort, a five‑pole motor, and all‑wheel drive for smooth, quiet operation, plus McHenry scale knuckle couplers. It’s ready to run out of the box, and its DCC‑ready Quick Plug design with a 21‑pin NEM connector makes setup and multi‑unit lashups straightforward. Minimum radius is 18 inches, with 22 inches recommended for best performance.
