HO GP39-2u Locomotive with DCC & Sound BNSF 2837 (ATHG66357)
HO Scale GP39-2u Locomotive with DCC & Sound in BNSF livery is a detailed HO-model that recreates EMD’s GP39-2u switcher as rebuilt after the 1995 BNSF merger. It captures Santa Fe’s Phase 1 design with illuminated swing-out number boards, a newly tooled exhaust stack, forward ditch lights, a rear-mounted fuel tank, and a pronounced anticlimber, delivering an authentic late‑90s look on an HO layout. The model reflects merger-era updates such as nose headlights and horn relocation, and covers road numbers 2773, 2795, and 2837, with the 2837 example presented in Phase 1 form with chickenwire grilles and bold cab and nose branding.
On the rails, this GP39-2u combines prototypical detailing with solid operation. It features a see‑through cab, fine-scale Celcon handrails, etched fan grilles, LED lighting, and a heavy die-cast frame for traction. DCC‑ready Quick Plug 21‑pin NEM connectivity is standard, and sound-equipped versions include a SoundTraxx Tsunami2 decoder with dual speakers for realistic engine, horn, and bell sounds that work in both DC and DCC. A grime-ready option invites weathering to recreate in‑service looks, while road-number variations (2773, 2795, 2837) reflect prototype differences in grille styling and horn type; for example, 2837 uses a chickenwire Phase 1 body with a Nathan 3‑chime horn and prominent cab/nose branding. The overall design combines prototype accuracy with smooth, quiet operation on common HO track.
