HO P42 Amtrak 50th Anniversary Locomotive with DCC & Sound (ATHG81316)
This HO-scale Amtrak 50th Anniversary Phase III P42DC locomotive with DCC and sound, numbered 160, is a meticulously detailed, officially licensed replica designed for HO layouts. It captures Amtrak's commemorative Phase III design with authentic nose variations and precise underbody detailing, delivering a convincing centerpiece for passenger-train scenes. Fully assembled and ready to run, the model includes a 21-pin NEM connector for easy decoder upgrades and supports operation on both DC and DCC layouts.
Under the hood, the Genesis driveline and die-cast frame deliver strong, smooth operation with all-wheel drive and reliable traction on HO track. The detailing is comprehensive—from separately applied wire handrails and a photo-etched radiator grille to underbody piping and flexible hoses—while LEDs illuminate the headlights, ditch lights, and marker lights as they should. The SoundTraxx Tsunami2-equipped model provides authentic engine, horn, and bell sounds and works on both DC and DCC, with full DCC functions and CV-adjustment options; a CV chart is included for fine-tuning, and dual 28mm speakers ensure clear, room-filling sound to match the impressive visuals.
