HO F3A Locomotive with DCC and Sound, Freight MKT #70A (ATHG-1718)

HO F3A Diesel Locomotive with DCC and Sound, Freight MKT 70A is an HO-scale replica that captures the look and operation of General Motors’ early F-unit freight power. The model recreates the bulldog-nose profile and pairs a DCC decoder with SoundTraxx Tsunami2 sound and dual cube speakers to deliver authentic engine rumble, horn, and bell as it leads a freight consist.

Designed for reliable performance on HO layouts, this locomotive uses a Genesis drive with a 5-pole skew-wound motor, a heavy die-cast frame, and all-wheel drive with reliable electrical pickup for smooth pulling power. It is DCC-ready with Quick Plug plug-and-play technology (21-pin NEM connector) and features LED lighting, see-through cab windows, and finely detailed parts such as etched fan grilles, windshield wipers, and wire grab irons. Road-numbered MKT 70A can be paired in MU lashups and includes prototype lighting options; minimum radius 18 inches, with 22 inches recommended for best operation.
