Broadway Limited 48 HO Paragon Series Steam 4-8-4 Powered with Sound & DCC – Your Source for Gaming Essentials

Description

This is a Broadway Limited 48 HO Scale Paragon Series Steam 4-8-4 Powered with Sound & DCC – Decorated Painted, Unlettered. Perhaps no other steam power defines the Santa Fe quite like its 4-8-4s. With an eye toward replacing 4-8-2s in passenger service, the road ordered a single 4-8-4 from Baldwin in 1927, which was assigned number 3751. After thorough testing, 13 more were ordered; All remained in service into the late 1950s. The 14 locos in the class were rebuilt several times. Major modifications included conversion from coal to oil fuel, replacement of the original 73 drivers with larger 80 wheels, replacing two smAll sand domes with a single large dome, and replacement of the original Elesco feedwater heater with a later Worthington type. Today, #3751 is the oldest surviving 4-8-4, and is cared for by the San Bernadino Railroad Historical Society. This series of models is based on the 3751 as it appears today. In addition to their many other Features, each model includes three styles of stacks to match Santa Fe practice; standard, with scissors extension in up position and with rear-facing Smoke deflector hood.
