Road Name: Painted Unlettered - Black with Graphite Smoke & Fire Box

Product Information

Not only was the 4-4-0 configuration the best-selling wheel arrangement of all steam locomotives, it was the longest running as well, first appearing in the late 1830s and seeing service until the end of the steam era. The 4-4-0 was a multipurpose locomotive that was stable, quick on rough track, and easy to maintain. As a result, more than 80,000 Americans were built for railroads of all gauges. Painted and striped "as delivered," our model is based on Baldwin designs for 30-inch railroads, with multiple-style accessory features that allow modelers to customize their locomotive.
