HO GEN GP39-2 PH IIB Locomotive w/DCC & Sound, BNSF #2727 (ATHG-1982)
ATHEARN EMD GP39-2 Diesel Locomotive with DCC & Sound in BNSF livery, No. 2727, is an HO‑scale model that recreates the mid‑horsepower GP39‑2 road switcher. Built on a heavy die‑cast frame with a Genesis driveline, it delivers smooth, quiet operation and dependable all‑wheel traction from a five‑pole skew‑wound motor with precision flywheels. The model features see‑through cab interiors, fine scale handrails, LED lighting, and a DCC‑ready plug‑and‑play design using a 21‑pin NEM connector; the sound‑equipped version adds a SoundTraxx Tsunami2 decoder with dual speakers for engine, horn, and bell sounds, operable on both DC and DCC layouts.
2727‑specific details include a low‑nose headlight and a strobe beacon (strobe effect in DCC) plus modeler‑applied remote antenna equipment included in the package. The BNSF variant uses a Phase II body with corrugated grilles, a large exhaust stack, and front and rear ditch lights, along with road‑number specific detailing. For sound‑equipped units, NMRA‑compliant function control and CV changes are supported, with a CV chart included in the box to tailor performance to a layout, while the heavy die‑cast frame and precise gearing help deliver reliable pulling power on typical HO layouts.
