HO Dash 9-44CW Locomotive BCOL 4654 (ATHG31566)

HO-scale BC Rail Dash 9-44CW Locomotive in BCOL livery, a high-detail model built to faithfully reproduce the prototype's Dash 9-44CW power. Designed for serious model railroading, this BCOL #4654 captures Canadian anticlimbers, a K5LA horn, and operating rock lights, with illuminated ground lights and front and rear walkway lighting for realistic operation. The model mirrors the teardrop-front cab windows and GE wide cab era, and arrives fully assembled and ready to run, including etched see-through walkway steps and a precise, prototypical paint finish.

Under the shell, the Genesis driveline delivers smooth performance with a 5-pole motor, precision flywheels, all-wheel drive, and full electrical pickup. It is DCC-ready with Quick Plug technology and a 21-pin NEM connector; features fine Celcon handrails, a detailed fuel tank, and body-mounted scale knuckle couplers with RP25 wheels for reliable operation on most track. Sound-equipped versions include a Tsunami2 decoder with dual speakers and operate in both DC and DCC, with full function control and CV-adjustable sound. The model sits on a heavy die-cast frame for weight and traction and is painted to prototype accuracy. It is compatible with curves as small as 18 inches, though a 22-inch radius is recommended for best performance.
