HO SD70M Locomotive with DCC & Sound, ONT / Flared #2121 (ATHG71226)

An HO-scale SD70M locomotive with DCC and sound in Ontario Northland’s flared cab livery, designed for HO layouts. This highly detailed model reproduces the late-model ONT SD70M with deck-mounted front and rear ditch lights, a PTC antenna array, a four-panel radiator body, and a late sloped cab nose with a small front plow. The ONT color scheme—gray, silver, and burgundy—is faithfully rendered, and see-through cab windows reveal a full interior. A heavy die-cast frame delivers solid traction, while RP25 wheel contours and body-mounted scale knuckle couplers provide reliable, prototypical operation on standard tracks. LED lighting adds realism, and the Genesis driveline with a five-pole motor ensures smooth, quiet performance, with a minimum radius of 18 inches (22 inches recommended) for best results.

Sound-equipped variants include an onboard DCC decoder with SoundTraxx Tsunami2, delivering authentic engine, horn, and bell sounds that operate in both DC and DCC, with full DCC function control in DCC mode. The model supports NMRA-compatible functions, precise slow-speed control, and the ability to program MU lashups, with a CV chart included for adjustment. DCC-ready Quick Plug plug-and-play technology and a 21-pin NEM connector simplify wiring, while fine Celcon handrails, see-through cab windows, and a full cab interior enhance realism. The combination of LED lighting, a heavy die-cast frame, RP25 wheels, and body-mounted couplers creates a lifelike HO-scale locomotive experience.
