{"product_id":"athg71726","title":"HO GP38-2 Locomotive NS #5280 (ATHG71726)","description":"\u003cdiv class=\"product_description\"\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003eHO scale Norfolk Southern GP38-2 locomotive NS 5280 is a detailed model designed to capture the post-Conrail NS fleet as it appeared in the late 1990s and early 2000s. It reproduces the authentic NS silhouette with operating class lights, illuminated number boards, and a Leslie 3-chime horn, while front and rear ditch lights add to its realistic presence on the rails. Road-number specifics reflect ex-Conrail units repainted into NS service, featuring mid-phase detailing such as chicken-wire grilles, drop steps, squared air filter boxes, and the familiar weedcutter plow for a convincing prototype look.\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003eInside, the locomotive emphasizes realism and reliable operation. It includes see-through cab windows and a full cab interior, with fine-scale handrails and accurate detailing like coupler cut levers, MU hoses, and Trainline hoses. Sound-equipped versions offer an onboard DCC decoder with SoundTraxx Tsunami2 sound and dual speakers, while all variants are DCC-ready with a 21-pin NEM connector and body-mounted scale knuckle couplers. The model rides on a heavy die-cast frame with RP25 wheels for smooth tracking, and it is designed for HO layouts with an 18-inch minimum radius (22 inches recommended) for optimum performance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Athearn (ATH)","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47924977729588,"sku":"ATHG71726","price":229.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0597\/6653\/8292\/files\/ATHG71726.jpg?v=1782150375","url":"https:\/\/nankinhobby.com\/products\/athg71726","provider":"Nankin Hobby","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
