This HO scale model replicates the late-19th and early-20th century steam locomotive, the 2-8-0 Consolidation. Known as a highly-efficient replacement for the 2-6-0 Mogul (it could move trains twice as heavy at a fraction of the cost), the 2-8-0 Consolidation was a mainstay on railroads all over the world. This replica features Paragon3 sound and operating system, synchronized puffing smoke with each chuff and variable smoke intensity and timing, die cast body and chassis, and traction tires. Performs best on 18" radius curves or greater. 11" long.
