HO GEN GP7 Locomotive SOU #8297 (ATHG-2282)
This HO-scale GP7 diesel locomotive in Southern Railway livery, SOU 8297, is a detailed replica designed for model railroad layouts. It captures the GP7’s early diesel profile with see-through cab windows and a full interior, complemented by fine-scale handrails, etched grills, and a heavy die-cast frame for realistic presence and pulling power on your track.
For the SOU variant, authentic details include an 800-gallon fuel tank, SOU-style sunshades, cut skirts, and mixed wheel bearings. The model features a Genesis driveline with a 5-pole motor for smooth, quiet operation, LED lighting, and all-wheel electrical pickup. It is DCC-ready with Quick Plug 21-pin NEM compatibility and body-mounted scale knuckle couplers (Kadee-compatible); some versions offer onboard DCC sound (SoundTraxx Tsunami2) with CV control and MU functionality. Suitable for both DC and DCC layouts, it supports an 18-inch minimum radius on HO track, delivering prototypical detail and operation to your layout.
