HO RND F7A Locomotive DCC-Ready ATSF #335 (RND-2234)

This HO-scale Santa Fe Warbonnet F7A diesel locomotive from the Athearn Roundhouse line is a DCC-ready model designed to bring the classic EMD F-unit to modern HO layouts. Road number 335 appears in the distinctive Warbonnet livery, with updated body tooling based on the Phase I Early F7A and a robust, ready-to-run chassis that captures the look of mid-century passenger and freight service.

Inside, a revised frame with a heavy die-cast weight and room for 21-pin DCC decoders delivers steady power and reliable operation. The model features all-wheel drive with two wires to each truck, a 5-pole motor with flywheels for smooth, quiet performance, and RP25-contoured wheels that run well on most track. It offers single or dual headlights, separately-applied horns, and McHenry operating-scale knuckle couplers, plus dual rear-coupler mounting options for flexible layouts. Finished with realistic painting and printing on a highly detailed injection-molded body, it is fully assembled and ready to run on HO layouts with a minimum 18-inch radius.
