HO GP9 Locomotive with DCC and Sound, UP #146 (ATHG82822)

HO GP9 Locomotive with DCC and Sound in Union Pacific livery, UP 146 — a ready-to-run HO-scale diesel that faithfully recreates the GP9 switcher. Fully assembled and prepared for immediate operation, it combines prototype-accurate detailing with a modern sound package for lifelike performance on your layout.

Powered by a Genesis driveline with a 5-pole motor and a heavy die-cast frame for smooth, confident pulling, the model features all-wheel drive and reliable current pickup. The onboard DCC decoder with SoundTraxx Tsunami2 sound, dual cube speakers, and NMRA-compatible functions deliver authentic engine, horn, and bell effects and operate in both DC and DCC modes. Road-number-specific UP 146 detailing includes Western Cullen beacon, small numbers on the ends and number boards, and a whip antenna, while fine details such as a full cab interior, see-through cab windows, etched radiator grilles, scale handrails, body-mounted knuckle couplers, and RP25 wheels round out the realism. A Quick Plug 21-pin NEM connector keeps DCC setup straightforward, and CV adjustments with the included CV chart let operators tailor sound and performance to their layout.
