HO FP45 Locomotive with DCC and Sound ATSF #5946 (ATHG18376)

HO FP45 Locomotive with DCC & Sound in Santa Fe livery (ATSF #5946) is a detailed HO-scale reproduction of EMD's FP45 lineage, capturing the distinctive cowl-bodied silhouette used by Santa Fe. This ready-to-run model combines a full cab interior with see-through cab windows and scale-detail features, while an onboard DCC decoder with SoundTraxx Tsunami2 sound delivers authentic engine, horn, and bell sounds on both DC and DCC layouts.

Built for authentic operation, it rides on a heavy die-cast frame for traction, with all-wheel drive and precision gearing for smooth, quiet performance. RP25-contour wheels ensure reliable tracking on common HO track, and bidirectional LED lighting adds realism in both directions. Santa Fe styling cues include a nose-mounted headlight, a cab-mounted gyralight with emergency red beacon (active in DCC), a 5-chime horn, and a passenger-style front plow, with the steam generator removed for freight service and a single can antenna. The model is DCC-ready with Quick Plug technology and a 21-pin NEM connector for easy setup, NMRA-compatible in DCC mode, and CV-adjustable for MU lashups. Minimum radius is 18 inches (22 inches recommended), and the accurately applied paint scheme reflects prototype references.
