HO GP39-2u Locomotive with DCC and Sound BNSF #2795 (ATHG66356)

This HO-scale GP39-2u Locomotive with DCC and Sound in BNSF livery (#2795) captures the GP39-2u units that were reassigned to BNSF after the 1995 merger and repainted into the early H1 scheme. The model showcases a Phase I body with corrugated grilles, illuminated swing-out number boards, a newly tooled exhaust stack, forward ditch lights, and a rear-mounted fuel tank with switcher-style walkway steps. Road-number specific details include a small cab number and a large nose logo, reflecting the prototype’s distinctive BNSF presentation.

Inside, the GP39-2u features a Genesis driveline with a 5-pole motor and a heavy die-cast frame for solid traction. It rides on RP25 wheels with body-mounted scale knuckle couplers, and includes LED lighting and lit number boards. In the sound-equipped version, a SoundTraxx Tsunami2 decoder with dual speakers delivers authentic engine, horn, and bell sounds that operate on both DC and DCC, with full DCC functionality. The model uses Quick Plug plug-and-play technology with a 21-pin NEM connector for easy DCC upgrades, and offers see-through cab windows with a full interior, fine-scale Celcon handrails, etched metal fan grilles, and a minimum 18-inch radius for smooth operation. A weathering-friendly “Primed for grime” look provides a ready starting point for adding realistic wear.
