Product ReviewsHO Athearn #4284 "Vintage" - DD40 - 2 Motors - Pennsylvania PRR Locomotive

Big, bad and brutal.

I have the non-prototype Pennsylvania version,which is what I wanted. It has two motors, has decent detail,and looks good when assembled. It has awesome pulling power and will likely pull ALL of your freight cars. Kadee couplers were an fairly easy upgrade, but those rails are really, REALLY tedious to install. Get the CA and a pin handy. The light lenses are annoying to install, too. It works and loks best on at least 22 inch radius curves. Still, 5 stars 'cause it is awesome machinery and did not cost $$$ as the newer DCC or DC models do, and those are only available in UP livery. I am happy with it and have not taken it off the track sinse I got it.Read full review...
