The SD50 was a 3,500-horsepower transition locomotive introduced in 1981, and this model captures its longer hood, updated dynamic-brake design, and prototype-accurate styling that helps bring that era to life on the layout.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\t\u003cp\u003eInside, the model houses an onboard DCC decoder with SoundTraxx Tsunami2 sound and dual cube speakers, delivering authentic horn, bell, and prime-mover noises in both DC and DCC operation. It offers full NMRA-compatible DCC functions and precise slow-speed control, with a Quick Plug 21-pin NEM connector for easy decoder upgrades. The Genesis SD50 rides on a heavy die-cast frame with all-wheel drive and reliable electrical pickup for smooth operation, while fine details like LED headlights, see-through cab windows, a full cab interior, walkways, and scale handrails heighten realism. DRGW-specific features include a 4000-gallon fuel tank, nose gyralight (DC\/DCC effect), Nathan K5 horn, EMD HTC trucks with Timken bearings, and an early-frame design with diagonal pilots and rounded anticlimbers, all finished in authentic DRGW livery and ready for HO with a minimum 22-inch radius.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Athearn Genesis (ATHG)","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47692284821556,"sku":"ATHG-1854","price":321.73,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0597\/6653\/8292\/files\/ATHG-1854.jpg?v=1776446395","url":"https:\/\/nankinhobby.com\/products\/athg-1854","provider":"Nankin Hobby","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
