{"product_id":"athg-1711","title":"HO F7A Locomotive, Freight LN #824 (ATHG-1711)","description":"\u003cdiv class=\"product_description\"\u003e\n\t\u003cp\u003eAn HO-scale F7A locomotive in freight livery, road number 824, this model recreates GM-EMD’s iconic F-unit for mid-century freight railroading. As part of the F-unit family that helped replace steam on North American mainlines, the design captures the bulldog-nose silhouette and carbody construction that defined the era, making it a versatile centerpiece for period-appropriate freight layouts.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\t\u003cp\u003ePowered by a Genesis driveline with a five-pole skew-wound motor, precision machined flywheels, and a multi-link drivetrain for smooth, quiet operation, the model rides on RP25 wheels and includes see-through cab windows with a full interior, plus separately applied metal and injection-molded detailing, etched fan grilles, and a detailed fuel system. Body-mounted scale knuckle couplers are Kadee-compatible for reliable coupling, and LED lighting adds realistic cab and marker illumination. The locomotive is DCC-ready with Quick Plug plug-and-play technology and a 21-pin NEM connector, supporting both DC and DCC layouts; some variants offer onboard SoundTraxx Tsunami2 sound with dual speakers for authentic engine, horn, and bell sounds. Roadname- and era-specific options may add features such as different pilots, grilles, and beacons to mirror prototypes. For layout use, it’s designed for minimum 18-inch curves, with 22-inch curves recommended for best performance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Athearn Genesis (ATHG)","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47608414470196,"sku":"ATHG-1711","price":217.39,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0597\/6653\/8292\/files\/ATHG-1711.jpg?v=1774291105","url":"https:\/\/nankinhobby.com\/products\/athg-1711","provider":"Nankin Hobby","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
