HO Dash 9-44CW Locomotive with DCC and Sound, BCOL #4654 (ATHG31666)

HO-scale Dash 9-44CW Locomotive with DCC and Sound in BC Rail livery is a detailed, ready-to-run model built to reproduce a modern heavy freight powerhouse. The locomotive captures BC Rail’s distinctive teardrop cab windows, Canadian anticlimbers, a K5LA horn, operating rock lights, illuminated ground lights, front and rear walkway lights, and number boards for authentic nighttime operation. An onboard DCC decoder with SoundTraxx Tsunami2 sound and dual cube speakers delivers realistic engine, horn, and bell sounds in both DC and DCC, while fine-scale Celcon handrails, etched see-through walkway steps, a full cab interior, and a detailed fuel tank enhance the scale realism.

On the rails, Genesis-driven power combines a heavy die-cast frame with all-wheel drive and electrical pickup for smooth, quiet operation and strong pulling power. The model features LED lighting, body-mounted McHenry scale knuckle couplers, RP25 wheels, and a fuel-tank assembly with fuel fillers, gauges, and breather pipes to mirror the prototype. It supports 21-pin NEM plug-and-play compatibility for CV tweaks and MU lashups, and a CV chart is included for reference. Designed for standard HO layouts with a minimum radius of 18 inches and a recommended radius of 22 inches, this BC Rail locomotive offers dependable performance and authentic Canadian motive power for hobbyists building realistic freight scenes.
