HO GEN SD50 Locomotive with DCC & Sound KCS 707 (ATHG-1867)

HO Genesis EMD SD50 Locomotive with DCC & Sound in Kansas City Southern livery, road number 707. This HO-scale model reproduces EMD’s 3,500-horsepower SD50 from the early 1980s with authentic detailing, including a full cab interior and see-through cab windows. It features an onboard DCC decoder with SoundTraxx Tsunami2 sound and dual speakers, providing realistic engine, horn, and braking sounds, and it runs on both DC and DCC layouts for flexible operation.

From a modeling standpoint, the SD50 uses new tooling and Genesis-level detailing: correct door placement and weld marks, scale handrails, and accurate dynamic features. It has a heavy die-cast frame for traction, a five-pole motor with flywheels and a multi-link drivetrain for smooth, quiet operation, and RP25 wheel contours with all-wheel electrical pickup. It’s DCC-ready through Quick Plug with a 21-pin NEM connector, and CV programming is supported with an included CV chart. For the Kansas City Southern version, the model carries KCS-specific touches such as a 4,500-gallon fuel tank, offset cab headlight with a warning light (DCC effect), a frame-mounted bell, and EMD HTC trucks with Hyatt bearings, delivering prototype-era accuracy on your layout.
