Explore the Athearn Genesis ATHG75858 EMD SD70ACU PRLX #7330 HO Scale model train with DCC and Sound Tsunami 2. This model features a Nathan 5 - chime horn, a large plow, and alternating flash ditch lights at both ends (functioning in DCC). In 2022, Progress Rail bought ex - NS SD70ACU’s, some with a red 'PRLX' over the old logo. The #7330 was originally CIT, with a full white upper cab 'brow' and a slightly faded body. The SD70ACU series offers illuminated truck lights, number boards, and see - through air intakes. The minimum radius is 18” and the recommended is 22”. The Genesis diesel locomotive has animated roller bearing trucks, coupler cut levers, and more. It's DCC - ready with Quick Plug™ technology. The sound - equipped models come with an onboard DCC decoder with SoundTraxx Tsunami2 sound, dual cube speakers, and work in both DC and DCC. The prototype has a rich history, starting from Norfolk Southern's purchase in 2014 and various rebuild and acquisition programs over the years.

Using this model train is a breeze. First, you can operate it in either DC or DCC mode. In DCC mode, you can access full functions like controlling the alternating flash ditch lights. The sound unit will give you realistic engine, horn, and bell sounds in both DC and DCC. For a multi - unit lashup, you can program it with the lead unit having exclusive horn, bell, and light control. When it comes to storage, the packaging is designed to hold the model securely. Just place it back in the box carefully. For maintenance, keep the model clean. You can use a soft, dry cloth to wipe away dust from the body, cab, and other visible parts. Avoid getting water or any liquid on the electrical components. If you notice any loose parts, like the coupler cut levers or wire grab irons, handle them gently and make sure they are properly attached. Also, be aware of the track radius. The minimum is 18” but for a smoother operation, use a 22” radius track.
