HO GEN 4-8-2 MT-4 Locomotive with Skyline Casing (ATHG-2114)

An HO-scale Athearn 4-8-2 MT-4 Mountain-type steam locomotive with Skyline Casing, offered in Legendary Liveries, brings the look of mid‑20th‑century mountain service to an HO layout. This model captures the Mt‑4 silhouette with authentic detailing, and the Legendary Liveries edition adds iconic or alternate paint schemes for collectors and proto-freelancers alike. The Skyline Casing helps direct exhaust smoke above the boiler, giving the locomotive a distinctive profile as it moves through your scene.

On the rails, the model emphasizes realism with features such as a front coupler pocket for an operating coupler, see‑through running boards with safety tread, and a detailed boiler backhead with printed gauges. It includes factory‑applied parts like a brass‑painted bell and whistle, valves, steps, and piping, plus McHenry operating scale knuckle couplers and adjustable cab windows and doors. It rides with era‑appropriate touches, including Skyline casing and Vanderbilt‑style tender variations, and is designed for HO layouts with a 22‑inch minimum radius. Some versions are equipped with a tender‑mounted DCC decoder and Tsunami2 sound with dual speakers for authentic operation, while remaining NMRA‑compatible in DCC mode.
