HO SD75M Locomotive with DCC and Sound BNSF #231 (ATHG71231)
HO-Scale SD75M Locomotive with DCC and Sound in BNSF #231. This model captures Santa Fe’s late-era SD75Ms in BNSF patches, offering road-number-specific detailing such as large cab numbers and yellow frame stripes on #231. Equipped with a DCC decoder and SoundTraxx Tsunami2 sound, it delivers authentic engine, horn, and bell sounds and runs on both DC and DCC layouts for versatile operation on any HO railroad.
Under the hood, the locomotive combines a heavy die-cast frame with a Genesis driveline and a five-pole motor for solid traction and smooth, quiet performance. It features LED lighting, see-through cab windows with a full interior, fine-scale handrails, and body-mounted scale knuckle couplers compatible with standard brands, plus RP25 wheels for reliable tracking. The model is DCC-ready with Quick Plug and a 21-pin NEM connector for easy decoder installation, and the finish is described as “Primed for grime,†making it a natural starting point for weathering to replicate an in-service, weathered appearance.
