Review ATHEARN Ho Scale Rtr Santa Fe Ry Emd F7a Powered F7b Dummy Locomotive Train Set

The 80218 Ho Scale Athearn RTR FE Ry EMD F7A/F7B Dummy Locomotive Train Set is an exceptional addition to any model railroad enthusiast's collection. This set features two stunningly detailed and fully-equipped diesel locomotives, the F7A and F7B, in the iconic Ryboner Yellow and Gray paint scheme, as used by the Illinois Central Railroad.

The F7A/F7B locomotives are EMD (Electro-Motive Diesel) models, renowned for their power and reliability in real-world rail operations. These HO scale replicas capture that essence perfectly, with their finely-detailed chassis, die-cast metal trucks, and realistic wheel sets. The locomotives boast operating headlights, directional lighting, and realistic smoke unit, all controlled by a DCC-ready, five-pole, skewed armature motor for smooth and accurate operation.

The dummy locomotives in this set are designed to run behind a real train without any power, providing a realistic touch to your layout. They are equipped with the same level of detail as the powered locomotives, including etched metal body sides, handrails, and windshield wipers. The dummy locomotives also feature coupler pockets for easy connection to other rolling stock.

The set includes a pair of 4-axle road trucks, providing a stable platform for the locomotives to ride on. The trucks are equipped with realistic metal wheel sets, with tread pattern and detailing that mimics the wear and tear of real-world rail operations.

The 80218 Ho Scale Athearn RTR FE Ry EMD F7A/F7B Dummy Locomotive Train Set is a testament to the craftsmanship and attention to detail that Athearn is known for. Whether you're a seasoned model railroad enthusiast or just starting out, this set is sure to provide hours of enjoyment and add a touch of realism to your layout.

1. Detailed and Accurate Model: The Athearn RTR F7A/F7B is a highly detailed and accurate model of the iconic EMD F7 locomotive, which is widely recognized in the railroad community.

2. Ready-to-Run (RTR): The train set is ready-to-run, meaning it comes fully assembled and equipped with DCC sound and lighting, making it easy for beginners to get started in the hobby.

4. Durable Construction: Athearn is known for their durable construction, and this train set is no exception. It is built to withstand the rigors of play and can handle rough tracks.

1. Price: The train set is relatively expensive, which may not be within everyone's budget.

2. Limited Functionality: While the train set comes with DCC sound and lighting, it may not have all the features that more advanced hobbyists may want.

3. Size: The train set is designed for HO scale, which may not be compatible with other scales or track systems.
