HO SD40 Locomotive Santa Fe #5019 (ATH87226)
Santa Fe HO SD40 Locomotive #5019 is a ready-to-run HO-scale model that captures the early 1970s Santa Fe look, featuring the Pin Stripe paint scheme and a rooftop Stratolite beacon (which operates in DCC mode). This locomotive is designed for HO-layout enthusiasts seeking authentic motive power, delivering period-correct styling and reliable, smooth operation on standard HO track.
From the injection-molded, highly detailed body to the array of era-appropriate hardware, the SD40 carries features like see-through dynamic brake and cab windows, fine wire grab irons, photo-etched windshield wipers, and a 4,000-gallon fuel tank. It rides on Flexicoil-C trucks with high/low brake cylinders, uses McHenry scale knuckle couplers (Kadee-compatible), and employs all-wheel drive with a refined motor for quiet, steady performance. DCC-ready Quick Plug technology makes digital conversion straightforward, and sound-equipped variants add Tsunami2 DCC/Sound with dual cube speakers for authentic engine, horn, and bell sounds operable on both DC and DCC. RP25-contoured wheels ensure compatibility with popular HO track, and the model is fully assembled and ready-to-run, packaged in window-style packaging with an interior blister for safe storage. Layout planning benefits from a minimum 18" radius (22" is preferred) for smooth operation and reliable traction on typical HO layouts.
