HO SD60M Tri-Clops Locomotive BN #9242 (ATHG75540)
HO scale Burlington Northern SD60M Tri‑Clops Locomotive reproduces BN’s heavyweight freight power with the distinctive Tri‑Clops three‑window cab. Built for pulling coal and long freight trains, it features front ditch lights, lit front and rear number boards, and a small EMD front plow for a faithful silhouette. The model includes an illuminated cab interior and see‑through windows, along with fine-scale Celcon handrails and other scale‑accurate details that enhance realism. Available in both non‑sound and sound‑equipped configurations, it is DCC‑ready with Quick Plug technology and a 21‑pin NEM connector for easy decoder upgrades, and it uses McHenry scale knuckle couplers for Kadee‑compatible operation.
Under the hood, the SD60M carries a Genesis driveline with a five‑pole motor, precision flywheels, and all‑wheel drive for smooth, quiet pulling power. The heavy die‑cast frame provides traction, while RP25 wheel contours and LED lighting deliver realistic performance on common HO tracks. The model is scaled from prototype resources to reflect accurate details, including a detailed fuel tank, walkways, lift rings, and realistic bell and horn placement. Sound versions pair a DCC decoder with Tsunami2 and dual speakers for authentic engine, horn, and bell sounds, with full DCC functionality and adjustable CVs for MU lashups. Minimum radius is 18 inches, with 22 inches recommended for the best experience.
