HO GEN GP39-2 Phase IIB Locomotive BNSF #2735 (ATHG-1968)
An HO-scale GP39-2 Phase IIB diesel locomotive in BNSF livery, numbered 2735, this model is a faithful, ready-to-run representation of EMD’s mid-horsepower road switcher. It’s designed for model railroaders seeking prototypical detail and reliable performance on modern-era HO layouts, with road-number- and livery-specific touches that bring the BNSF scheme to life.
Inside, a Genesis driveline with a five-pole skew-wound motor powers smooth, quiet operation via an all-wheel drivetrain and RP25 wheels. LED lighting, a see-through cab with interior, fine-scale handrails, etched grills, and a heavy die-cast frame contribute to realism and durability. The model is DCC-ready with a Quick Plug 21-pin NEM connector, and CV-programmable for customized control; sound-equipped variants offer SoundTraxx Tsunami2 with dual speakers for authentic engine, horn, and bell sounds. Road-number-specific details for 2735 include a cab headlight and skate-style cab antennas, while the Phase II body features corrugated grilles and Q fans. A minimum 18-inch radius is recommended for reliable operation on typical HO layouts, and the model ships with protective packaging for safe storage.
