M.T.H's HO Brochure 2008 No. 3 features the firm's first diesel locomotive; the EMD SD70ACe in a slew of different roadnames, including all of the Union Pacific Heritage schemes. M.T.H.’s HO locomotives feature the firm’s most sophisticated version of its highly acclaimed Proto-Sound digital sound and command control onboard electronics. The Proto-Sound 3.0 system found in M.T.H.’s HO locomotives includes features not found in other firm's sound systems and include a command control receiver that can operate with M.T.H.’s DCS Digital Command System or any manufacturer’s DCC system. The number of features that can be controlled under DCC depends on the codes that the controller was designed to operate, DCS can control all the features that the model locomotives provide. The SD70ACe will feature an all-new Proto-Sound 3.0 feature never before found in HO products; remotely controlled couplers that do NOT require an operating track section. Long a staple on our O and One Gauge models, the HO scale Proto-Coupler features a scale knuckle that can couple with popular scale couplers including Kadee and McHenry models, yet can be triggered to automatically open anywhere on the layout using M.T.H.'s DCS system or any DCC controller. When fired open, the Proto-Sound 3.0 system plays a clunking sound effect to simulate the sound of the knuckle opening, followed by air release sounds of the brake lines breaking apart. Unlike other HO sound-equipped locomotives currently on the market, M.T.H.’s diesel locomotives include digital sound synched to locomotive speed for an incredibly realistic operating experience. Built-in speed control ensures that your engine travels at scale speeds (1:87) regardless of changes in grade, load or through curves. M.T.H.'s diesel locomotives are completely compatible with most 16 volt or higher analog DC power supplies. Under analog operation the user retains direction control, directional lighting, squeaking brakes and speed control and diesel engine roar. When operated in command mode using M.T.H.’s DCS Digital Command System (DCS), operators will have access to hundreds of features and sounds, including crossing signals, a user controlled “quillable” diesel horn that simulates an engineer’s differing pressure on the whistle pull cord for seamless horn pitches, triggerable operating ditch lights and much more. The SD70ACe is constructed from ABS plastic and features a host of add-on details sure to please the most particular of modern diesel lovers. The body rides atop a detailed chassis designed to pull long consists and includes cab interior detail, operating ditch lights and cab figures.
