Piko 52939 HO Scale Whitcomb 65-Ton Diesel Undec Black, Non-Sound

The Piko 52939 is an HO Scale Whitcomb 65-Ton undecorated black diesel locomotive, offered in a non-sound configuration. This undecorated black Whitcomb is ready for the modeler's own road name, with American-style fully-enclosed end beams and Kadee-compatible PIKO knuckle couplers. It is supplied non-sound and DCC-ready, so a decoder can be fitted for digital control. The prototype 65-Ton Diesel, also known as the 65-DE-19A, was built in America to fit the tight clearances of European railroads and served the US Army Transportation Corps before many returned to work American short lines and industrial railroads.

Item 52939 pairs a diecast metal chassis and hood for heavy weight and strong pulling power with metal handrails and a powerful, quiet, smooth-running motor for excellent low-speed control. Numerous factory-applied details and crisp lettering complete the model. Item 52939 uses reduced-depth wheel flanges for operation on Code 100 and Code 83 track and has a minimum recommended radius of 14 inches (358 mm).
