HO GEN SD90MAC Locomotive with DCC and Sound NS 'Ex-CIT' #7330 (ATHG-1938)

HO scale Athearn Genesis EMD SD90MAC diesel locomotive with DCC and sound in Norfolk Southern Ex-CIT livery is a ready-to-run model designed to bring authentic diesel power to HO layouts. It combines a detailed body on a heavy die-cast frame with a built-in DCC decoder and SoundTraxx Tsunami2 sound, delivering engine, horn, and bell audio through dual speakers in both DC and DCC operation. Realistic touches such as LED headlights and lit number boards, see-through cab windows and steps, a full cab interior, windshield wipers, and fine-scale handrails make the model look and feel like the prototype as it moves around the layout.

Under the hood, the Genesis driveline—with a 5-pole motor, precision flywheels, and all-wheel drive—provides smooth, quiet pulling power, while RP25 wheels and body-mounted scale knuckle couplers ensure reliable operation on HO track. It offers full DCC functionality, with quick-plug 21-pin NEM connectivity, plus a user-friendly CV-based tuning path and a CV chart included in the box. Road-number-specific styling—such as nose-door options with or without windows, front ditch lights, and other NS Ex-CIT cues—gives collectors authentic variation, and a grime-ready finish makes it an ideal starting point for weathering. The model is fully assembled and ready to run, packaged securely for safe storage when not on display.
