HO GEN SDP45 Locomotive Legendary Liveries SP Daylight #3201 (ATHG-1998)

HO-scale EMD SDP45 diesel locomotive in Southern Pacific Daylight livery, road number 3201, part of Athearn’s Legendary Liveries lineup. This ready-to-run model reproduces the SDP45’s longer frame and distinctive Daylight appearance, providing a striking centerpiece for HO layouts or display. Legendary Liveries are an Athearn exclusive, offering iconic, sometimes proposed or alternate paint schemes that appeal to collectors and protofreelance enthusiasts alike.

Designed for dependable operation on HO track, the model combines a heavy die-cast frame with a Genesis driveline for smooth power and traction, along with all-wheel drive and reliable current pickup. LED lighting adds to the realism, and it is DCC-ready with Quick Plug technology and a 21-pin NEM connector for easy decoder or sound upgrades. Road-number specific detailing mirrors the SP Daylight presentation, including features like a modified L-window cab and steam generator, plus a front-end lighting package, while minimum and recommended radii (18" and 22") help guide layout planning.
