**Lombard Hobbies Recommendation - As modelers ourselves we highly recommend ONLY running DCC on DCC systems and DC on DC systems, regardless of 'Dual-Mode' capability. This gives optimum performance and safeguards the unit from possible damage from running on a different system than originally intended and from any inexperienced operator errors.

Athearn Ready to Roll is a terrific model
This Conrail SW1500 has all the details right outta the box! It’s right up there with all the “super detailed “ models from other manufacturers. Mine is DC only, but after just a short break in runs smoothly and quietly. It has become a favorite! It’s a great value and would be a perfect model for a branchline, yard or local freight service!
