HO FP45 Locomotive with DCC and Sound CB&Q #9997 (ATHG18388)

HO Scale FP45 Locomotive with DCC and Sound in CB&Q livery, #9997 is a ready-to-run HO model designed for authentic operation on model railroad layouts. It features an onboard DCC decoder and SoundTraxx Tsunami2 sound, delivering realistic engine, horn, and bell sounds, with operation in both DC and DCC modes and full NMRA compatibility for function control.

Inside and out, it’s packed with realistic details: a full cab interior with see-through windows, wire grab irons, scale handrails, a detailed fuel tank, and period-accurate fittings. A heavy die-cast frame provides traction, while a Genesis driveline with a 5-pole motor and precision flywheels ensures smooth, quiet performance. RP25-contoured wheels and all-wheel electrical pickup support reliable operation across track brands, and bidirectional LED lighting mirrors real-world headlight and taillight operation. The model ships fully assembled and ready to run, with plug-and-play DCC compatibility via a 21-pin NEM connector and CV options to tailor speed, lighting, and sound (CV chart included). CB&Q-specific touches include split Leslie S3L horns, a firecracker antenna, a winterization hatch, steam generator details, and an upper dual-oscillating light for the DCC/sound version; no dynamic brakes are included to match CB&Q practice.
