Atlas Master HO 10003718 Silver Series EMD SD-24 Low Nose DCC Ready Southern Pacific 'Fantasy Scheme' SP #7202

With over 220 units produced by EMD between July 1958 and March 1963, the SD-24 locomotive generated a total of 2,400 hp with its turbocharged 567D-3 prime mover and C-C wheel arrangement.

The majority of SD-24s produced were purchased by four roads: Chicago Burlington & Quincy, Santa Fe, Southern, and Union Pacific. Atlas’ HO scale model features details unique to each road name:

• Burlington ‘CB&Q’: High nose, single-chime air horn on short hood, Gyra-light on short hood, non-operating, winterization hatch
• Santa Fe: Low nose, 3-chime horn mounted on left side of hood behind cab
• Southern: High nose, 5-chime horn mounted on cab, bell detail on short hood
• Union Pacific: Low nose, 3-chime horn mounted between 2nd and 3rd radiator fans, winterization hatch

Features:

• Separately-applied roof piping detail
• Golden-white LEDs
• Realistic die-cast underframe
• Five-pole skewed armature motor with dual flywheels for optimum performance at all speeds
• Directional lighting
• Factory-equipped with AccuMate knuckle couplers
• Painted crew figures
• Separately-installed scale windshield wipers, metal grab irons and fine scale handrails
• Highly detailed coupler cut bars
• Multiple unit hoses and trainline hoses
• Piping on trucks

Atlas Master Silver Series Additional Features:

• NMRA 8-pin plug for DCC Decoder-ready

Atlas Master Gold Series Additional Features:

• Electronic Dual-Mode Decoder ‘e-DMD’ that allows your locomotive to run in DCC or traditional DC**

QSI Quantum System Features (Atlas Master Series Gold locomotives only):

• Dual speaker system
• Authentic diesel engine sounds
• Squealing brakes
• Doppler effect
• Air let-off in neutral
• Coupler impact sounds when operated with DCC
• Helper mode that mutes the whistle and bell for double heading

Note: Due to the higher starting voltage required to operate the sound system, it is not possible to MU a non-sound-equipped loco in analog DC mode.

**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.
