HO scale GP38-2 diesel locomotive CEIX #104 is a detailed HO-model designed to bring prototype power to a home layout. This locomotive captures the GP38-2’s dash-2 styling and modular electrical features, featuring a Genesis driveline with a five-pole motor, precision flywheels, and an all-wheel-drive system for smooth, quiet operation. Inside, it offers a full cab interior with see‑through windows, windshield wipers, wire grab irons, and finely scaled handrails, with LED lighting for reliable daytime and nighttime operation. It is DCC-ready with Quick Plug plug‑and‑play technology via a 21-pin NEM connector, allowing easy DC operation or quick addition to a DCC system, while CEIX’s road number 104 and detailed fuel-tank and breather detailing deliver an authentic, ready‑to‑run look.

Beyond appearance, this model emphasizes reliable performance and realism: features include operating class lights, body-mounted scale knuckle couplers, and RP25 wheel contours for compatibility with popular HO track, all housed in a heavy die-cast frame for added traction. Sound-equipped versions provide an onboard DCC decoder with Tsunami2 sound, dual speakers, and full DCC functionality, NMRA-compatible CV control, and precise slow-speed performance. CEIX-specific detailing adds lit number boards, front and rear light packages, and period-accurate touches, with an 18-inch minimum radius ensuring smooth operation on a wide range of layouts.
