3rd Rail 3039 O BRASS Chesapeake & Ohio T-1 2-10-4 Steam Loco & Tender #3039 EX/Box
Here is a 3rd Rail 3039 O BRASS Chesapeake & Ohio T-1 2-10-4 Steam Locomotive & Tender #3039. Features include brass construction, brass trucks, knuckle couplers, metal wheels & axles and a motor. Introduced in 1919 by Baldwin locomotive Works in North America, the 2-10-4 would quickly find itself as a mainstay in railyards all over the world -- being commissioned in North America, South America, Europe, and Africa! The North American models were introduced for the Atchison and Topeka & Santa Fe railways initially, but would find themselves on various other railways as well. The production of these models was briefly halted during the Great Depression in the 1930s, but would see a fresh breath of life again in 1938 with steel production and locomotive manufacturing picking back up. With a handful of these models in a preservation status, this is your chance to get one running on the rail yards again with this masterfully crafted O-Gauge replica!This item has been graded
