HO Athearn 4-4-0 Steam Locomotive with DCC and Sound CNW 270 (ATH-2699)
This HO-scale 4-4-0 steam locomotive in CNW #270 livery offers a faithful, ready-to-run representation of a classic 19th-century engine for HO layouts. It pairs a highly detailed injection-molded body with a heavy die-cast frame and a 5-pole motor to deliver solid pulling power. Realistic touches include see-through cab windows, separately applied wire-form details, a smokestack, and a boiler-mounted bell, while bi-directional LED headlights maintain consistent brightness in either direction. The model is built for both DC and DCC operation, with sound-equipped versions delivering onboard DCC decoding and SoundTraxx Econami for authentic locomotive sound.
On the rails, nickel-plated, blackened machined wheels with RP25 contours ride for smooth operation on HO track, aided by traction tires on two drivers for extra pulling power. McHenry operating scale knuckle couplers provide realistic coupling, and a DCC-ready 21-pin plug enables easy decoder installation. If you choose the sound-equipped variant, it includes a dedicated DCC decoder with Econami sound and full DCC functionality with CV control. The layout-friendly design handles HO curves down to an 18-inch radius, with a 22-inch radius recommended for best performance.
