HO AC4400CW Locomotive KCS #2001 (ATHG31688)

HO-scale GE AC4400CW Locomotive in Kansas City Southern livery (KCS #2001) is a detailed model built for HO-layout enthusiasts who want a faithful representation of GE’s high-horsepower freight locomotive on their track. It supports both DC operation and DCC layouts, and there are sound-equipped versions with Tsunami2 sound and dual speakers for a lifelike experience. Authentic paintwork, illuminated number boards, and lighting for the cab and ground areas help capture the prototype’s presence, including heritage finishes such as the early grey scheme and the later Southern Belle styling.

Under the hood, the Genesis driveline uses a five-pole motor with all-wheel drive and a heavy die-cast frame for smooth, confident pulling power. Fine-scale details include etched walkways, see-through cab windows, Celcon handrails, wire grab irons, and a detailed fuel tank with fillers and gauges; practical features such as McHenry scale knuckle couplers (Kadee-compatible), RP25 wheel contours, flexible MU hoses, and LED lighting further enhance realism. Sound-equipped versions feature an onboard DCC decoder, dual cube speakers, and full DCC functionality, with CVs that let operators tailor MU lashups and slow-speed performance for realistic operation on a busy HO layout.
