HO GEN 4-8-8-4 'Big Boy' Locomotive w/DCC & Sound, Legendary Liveries SOU #4075 (ATHG-2209)

An HO-scale Genesis 4-8-8-4 Big Boy steam locomotive with DCC and sound, finished in the Legendary Liveries SOU #4075 scheme. This ready-to-run model faithfully captures the silhouette and presence of the iconic Big Boy, offering a collectible-quality replica that runs with plummy power on any HO layout. The Legendary Liveries line showcases distinctive paint schemes that add character and history to a locomotive roster, making the SOU #4075 variant a striking centerpiece.

On the rails, this model pairs authentic detailing with feature-rich electronics: illuminated number boards and headlights, with the headlight turning off in reverse, and a tender back-up light; accurately reproduced eccentric cranks, adjustable cab vent and windows, and pivoting front and rear engines to handle 22-inch curves. It uses current pickup on all wheels and a boiler backhead with printed gauges, along with a sturdy loco-to-tender connection harness. Inside, a DCC decoder with SoundTraxx Tsunami2 drives dual speakers for full, realistic sound that works in both DC and DCC, with full DCC functions and slow-speed control. It also supports MU lashups and CV adjustments, and there’s a Primed for Grime option to simulate in-service wear. The minimum radius is 22 inches, ensuring smooth operation on most HO layouts.
