HO GEN SDP45 Locomotive BN #6593 (ATHG-2001)
HO-scale Athearn SDP45 diesel locomotive in Burlington Northern livery, road number 6593. This ready-to-run model faithfully reproduces the SDP45’s distinctive long hood and detailing for HO layouts, with LED lighting, a heavy die-cast frame for traction, and a Genesis driveline that delivers smooth, quiet operation. It is designed for HO-scale tracks and ships assembled and ready to roll, offering plug-and-play DCC compatibility, body-mounted scale knuckle couplers, RP25 wheel contours for reliable tracking on standard HO layout, and a detailed fuel tank with fine Celcon handrails to capture prototype proportions.
Road-number-specific details for 6593 reflect ex-GN heritage, including hi brake cylinders and a cab-mounted MILW-style electronic bell, while BN refinements such as Stratolite beacon, steam generator details, and a medium front plow add prototype fidelity. The model is primed for grime, making it an ideal base for weathering to recreate a well-used locomotive, and it can be equipped with sound in the sound-enabled variants for authentic engine, horn, and bell sounds. With an 18-inch minimum radius (22 inches recommended) and compatibility with a variety of HO layouts, the SDP45 lineup also includes Legendary Liveries—exclusive paint schemes that celebrate historic and imaginative railroad schemes.
