{"product_id":"rpi38523","title":"HO EMD GP38 Locomotive with DCC \u0026 Sound PC #7848 (RPI38523)","description":"\u003cdiv class=\"product_description\"\u003e\n\t\u003cp\u003eThis HO-scale EMD GP38 locomotive with DCC and sound captures the look and feel of the GP38, modeled here with road number 7848 for roster-accurate detail. It’s built for serious HO-modelers who want authentic styling and reliable operation on a layout, delivering proto-specific presence that stands out in both display and motion.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\t\u003cp\u003eRoad-specific detailing spans the model, including Rapido’s dead-straight metal side handrails with plastic stanchions, see-through etched steps, and battery box doors that vary by road. The underframe is packed with traction-motor cables, air filters, and a wealth of separately applied parts that add depth and realism. Lighting is fully functional—headlights, rear lights, tri-color class lights, and ditch lights or beacons where appropriate—complemented by a highly detailed cab interior. The GP38 carries correct fuel-tank sizes, multiple truck sideframes, and varied stepwells to reflect prototype differences, and it can be powered through either DC or DCC with options for silent 21-pin DCC-Ready or LokSound decoders for authentic sound and control.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Rapido Trains (RPI)","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47574395846708,"sku":"RPI38523","price":349.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0597\/6653\/8292\/files\/RPI38523.jpg?v=1773320318","url":"https:\/\/nankinhobby.com\/products\/rpi38523","provider":"Nankin Hobby","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
