HO GEN GP38-2 Locomotive with DCC and Sound (ATHG-1831)

HO Scale GP38-2 Diesel Locomotive with DCC and Sound is a detailed HO‑scale model that recreates the GP38‑2’s rugged freight-hauled character. It runs on both DC and DCC layouts and includes an onboard SoundTraxx Tsunami2 sound system with dual cube speakers for realistic engine and horn effects. The model features a 21‑pin NEM connector for easy DCC installation, LED lighting, a full cab interior with see‑through windows, and finely scaled Celcon handrails for a lifelike appearance on any layout.

Built for authentic performance, the GP38‑2 uses a heavy die‑cast frame with a Genesis driveline, a five‑pole skew‑wound motor with flywheels, and a multi‑link drivetrain for smooth, quiet operation and solid pulling power. All‑wheel electrical pickup, body‑mounted McHenry knuckle couplers, and RP25 wheel contours help it track reliably on common HO track. Detailing includes a detailed fuel tank with fillers and gauges, walkways, lift rings, and walkable handrails, while the onboard decoder provides full DCC functionality and NMRA CV compatibility (a CV chart is included for setup).
