HO P42DC Locomotive with DCC and Sound AMTK Phase V #69 (ATHG-1696)

HO scale Amtrak P42DC Locomotive with DCC & Tsunami2 Sound, Phase V #69 is a highly detailed, officially licensed Amtrak model designed to power HO-scale passenger trains with authentic sound and lighting. It combines a robust drive with a built-in DCC decoder and SoundTraxx Tsunami2 sound, delivering realistic engine, horn, and bell effects for both DC and DCC operation, along with LED headlights, ditch lights, and marker lights for day and night realism.

Road-number and prototype details include four nose variations—Amtrak as-built with strobes, Amtrak as-built without strobes, Amtrak rebuilt, and Via—and AMTK Phase V antenna configurations, with the #69 version featuring a PTC antenna farm and angled air dryer guards. The model also sports detailed underframe and body features, flexible MU hoses, and a redesigned die-cast frame for dependable pulling power. It includes McHenry scale knuckle couplers (Kadee compatible), a 21-pin Quick Plug DCC interface, and all-wheel drive and electrical pickup for smooth, reliable operation on HO track. Minimum radius is 18 inches, with 22 inches recommended for best performance on curves.
