HO GP40-2 Locomotive DRGW #3116 (ATHG-1732)
HO GP40-2 Locomotive in DRGW livery, DRGW #3116, is an HO-scale diesel model designed for realistic freight operation on model railroads. It combines prototype accuracy with modern detailing—LED lighting with lit number boards and class lights, a see-through cab interior, and a heavy die-cast frame for traction—paired with a DCC-ready Quick Plug 21-pin NEM, body-mounted Kadee-compatible couplers, and RP25 wheels for reliable operation on standard HO track. The Genesis-style five-pole motor and all-wheel-drive drivetrain deliver smooth, quiet performance, while fine-scale handrails, etched fan grilles, and accurate paint schemes enhance the model’s lifelike presence. A minimum radius of 18 inches keeps it compatible with common HO layouts while enabling realistic curves.
DRGW-specific details for #3116 include a silver gyralight bezel, no Rio Grande logo on the nose, and a cab vent on the right side. The DRGW scheme also features lit number boards and class lights, a cab beacon effect in DCC, a front ditch light, and a Nathan P3 horn on the long hood, reflecting the prototype’s early GP40-2 characteristics. Some versions in the GP40-2 line may include onboard Tsunami2 sound with dual speakers for added realism, offering compatibility with both DC and DCC operation.
