HO FP7A/F7B Locomotive MILW #100A/117B (ATHG19605)

HO FP7A/F7B Locomotive MILW #100A/117B is an HO-scale replica of Milwaukee Road's FP7 diesel-electric locomotive, designed to capture the power and look of late 1940s passenger service. The model mirrors the long-body FP7 silhouette with a see-through cab and a full interior, plus detailed underframe components and Blomberg-B trucks for an authentic profile on an HO layout. It’s a standout piece for any Milwaukee Road roster, offering both visual accuracy and solid, reliable operation.

On the tech side, the locomotive is DCC-ready with Quick Plug plug-and-play technology and a 21-pin NEM connector, and it uses LED lighting for realistic day and night effects. It carries authentic detailing such as a fuel tank with gauges and fillers, etched metal parts, and a heavy die-cast frame for traction, while RP25-wheeled trucks ensure smooth running on common HO track. Milwaukee-specific features include roof-mounted oil coolers, modified skirts, winterization hatches, back-up lights, and oscillating signal lights on A-units. Sound-equipped versions can include onboard DCC with Tsunami2 and dual speakers, operable in both DC and DCC modes with NMRA compatibility in DCC. For best performance, a minimum 18-inch radius is recommended, with 22 inches or more preferred.
