HO GEN SD50 Locomotive with DCC and Sound CNW #7004 (ATHG-1861)

HO-scale Athearn Genesis EMD SD50 Locomotive in CNW livery, number 7004, a detailed model designed to deliver prototypical performance on HO-scale layouts. It comes with an onboard DCC decoder and SoundTraxx Tsunami2 sound, dual cube speakers, and can run on both DC and DCC layouts, providing realistic horn, bell, and engine sounds along with smooth, controlled operation.

Genesis tooling provides authentic detail, including new bodies with correct door placement and weld marks, full cab interior, see-through cab windows, and fine-scale handrails, all mounted on a heavy die-cast frame for traction. The model rides on RP25 wheels with all-wheel electrical pickup and body-mounted McHenry knuckle couplers for realistic movement, while a 21-pin NEM connector supports easy DCC installation. CNW-specific features include the Leslie 3-chime horn, CNW triangular antenna, frame-mounted bell, 4,500-gallon fuel tank, Hyatt bearings, Xenon strobe effects in DCC, and late-frame details for an authentic late-CNW appearance, with CV-friendly options for MU lashups and a CV chart included for easy tweaking.
