HO F3A Locomotive Southern Pacific #6102 (ATHG19575)

HO Scale F3A Locomotive in Southern Pacific livery (SP #6102) is a detailed model that recreates EMD’s classic F-unit for HO-scale layouts. This Phase II F3A captures the look and feel of SP’s postwar freight power, including slot-style dynamic brakes, dual single-note air horns on the A-units, a freight pilot, and the original grab irons and skirts, reflecting SP’s DEF-1/DEF-2-era appearance.

Designed for smooth, reliable operation, the model features a heavy die-cast frame, Genesis driveline with a 5-pole skew-wound motor, and all-wheel drive for strong pulling power. RP25 wheels ensure compatibility with popular HO track brands, while body-mounted, scale knuckle couplers keep the look true to prototypes. A full cab interior behind see-through windows, etched grills, and a detailed fuel tank add realism, complemented by LED lighting and prototypical signaling. The locomotive is DCC-ready with Quick Plug plug-and-play and a 21-pin NEM connector for easy decoder installation; sound-equipped versions include a DCC decoder with Tsunami2 sound and dual speakers, with NMRA-compatible functions in DCC and operation on DC. Minimum radius is 18 inches, with 22 inches recommended for best performance on curves.
