HO GEN GP39-2 PH I Locomotive WAMX Wisconsin Southern #3947 (ATHG-1975)

An HO-scale EMD GP39-2 diesel locomotive in Wisconsin Southern (WAMX) livery, road number 3947. This Athearn model provides a faithful, ready-to-run representation of the GP39-2, giving HO layouts an authentic power unit for Wisconsin-based operations.

Powered by a Genesis drive system with a 5-pole motor, a heavy die-cast frame, all-wheel drive, and LED lighting, this model is designed for smooth, quiet operation and reliable pulling. It is DCC-ready with Quick Plug 21-pin NEM compatibility and features RP25-contoured wheels for reliable tracking on most HO tracks. Road 3947 carries the standard scheme with a non-standard number-board font, while Wisconsin Southern-specific details include a newly tooled revised D&H-style walkway and fuel tank, an early phase 1 body, Nathan 3-chime horn, roof A/C, front and rear ditch lights, and a small EMD plow for an authentic on-layout presence.
