HO FP45 Locomotive with DCC & Sound MILW #3 (ATHG18386)

HO FP45 Locomotive with DCC & Sound in Milwaukee Road livery is a detailed, ready-to-run HO-scale model of Electro-Motive’s FP45 cowl-bodied locomotive. It pairs a heavy die-cast frame with a Genesis driveline and a 5-pole skew-wound motor for smooth, confident pulling power on standard HO track, while authentic detailing and Milwaukee Road branding capture the look and character of the prototype.

Sound-equipped versions feature an onboard DCC decoder with SoundTraxx Tsunami2 sound, delivering engine, horn, and bell effects in both DC and DCC modes, with full DCC function control when operating digitally. The model is DCC-ready with Quick Plug plug-and-play technology and a 21-pin NEM connector for quick installation, and a CV chart is included for fine-tuning. MILW-specific features include a nose-mounted headlight, Leslie 3-chime horn, winterization hatch, electronic bell, and a passenger pilot plow, plus per-road-number lighting cues; road-number variations (#2, #3, #4) reflect different service schemes. Built on RP25 wheels with see-through cab windows, fine-scale handrails, and a detailed fuel tank, it’s designed for HO layouts and recommended for minimum radii of 18 inches (22 inches recommended) for smooth operation.
