HO Dash 9-44CW Locomotive Sound-Ready BNSF & Heritage II #675 (ATH78062)
GE Dash 9-44CW HO Locomotive in BNSF Heritage II livery, number 675, is a sound-ready HO-scale model designed to capture the power and detail of GE’s Dash 9 era. It comes DCC-ready with a 21-pin plug and pre-installed speakers, and features operating ditch lights for realistic signaling. Road-name-specific horn, plow, rear grills, trucks, and antennas are complemented by see-through cab windows and fine-scale handrails. Authentic touches include factory sunshades, a frame-mounted bell, exhaust stack, brake wheel, rear sand filler, and air tanks, with separately-applied wire grab irons and either steerable or Hi-ad trucks with dedicated shock struts and brake cylinders. A 5,000-gallon fuel tank, LED lighting with constant headlight brightness in both directions, and a robust 5-pole motor with flywheels keep operation smooth and quiet, while all-wheel drive and accurate gearing, plus full current pickup and a heavy die-cast frame, deliver dependable traction. McHenry operating scale knuckle couplers, Quick Plug DCC readiness, and RP25-contoured wheels round out the package.
Prototype context places this locomotive in GE’s Dash 9 lineage, with the Dash 9-44CW sharing its frame, Hi-ad trucks, 16-cylinder 7FDL engine, and 752AH-31 traction motors with the Dash 9-40CW. This BNSF Heritage II scheme with #675 reflects a widely-used configuration among North American railroads, capturing the bold presence of a workhorse locomotive that toured both mainlines and yards across the era.
