HO Genesis SD50 Locomotive with DCC and Sound, DRGW #5510 (ATHG-1855)

HO-scale EMD SD50 locomotive from the Genesis line, designed to bring authentic 1980s-era power to your layout. This Denver & Rio Grande Western DRGW 5510 version includes DCC and SoundTraxx Tsunami2 sound for realistic horn, bell, and engine noises, plus LED headlights and class lights where applicable, a detailed cab interior, see-through cab windows, and a heavy die-cast frame that yields solid traction and smooth operation.

DRGW-specific details for 5510 include a 4,000-gallon fuel tank, a nose gyralight (active in DCC), and EMD HTC trucks with Timken bearings, all in an early-frame design with diagonal pilot cutouts and rounded anticlimbers. The locomotive is DCC-ready with Quick Plug plug-and-play technology and a 21-pin NEM connector, supports MU lashups, and uses RP25 wheel contours for reliable performance on HO track. Finished in prototype DRGW paint and lettering, it’s a ready-to-run centerpiece that captures the look and feel of 1980s diesel power.
