Description
HO-scale Burlington Northern SW1500 switcher BN 322  a ready-to-run locomotive designed for yard work and short- to mid-length moves on HO layouts. It combines a compact profile with a highly detailed injection-molded body, a full cab interior, and BN-era paint and lettering, delivering a convincing, prototype-accurate presence on the rails. It arrives fully assembled and ready to run, letting you drop it onto the layout and start operating.
On the track it offers practical, layout-friendly performance: RP25-contoured wheels ensure smooth running on most HO track, while McHenry scale knuckle couplers are compatible with Kadee couplers for authentic operation. DCC-ready variants include a 21-pin plug for easy decoder installation, and sound-equipped versions feature Tsunami2 decoders with dual cube speakers for authentic engine and horn sounds. Additional details include operating ground lights, a 1,100-gallon fuel tank, see-through radiator and cab windows, LED lighting, and a minimum 18-inch radius for curves.
