Available On: May 1, 2015
The Broadway Limited Imports Brass-Hybrid 4-12-2 models include locomotives from classes UP-4 and UP-5 and are detailed as the prototypes existed late in their careers. All locomotives feature Boxpox main drivers, an enlarged straight stack, accurate sand dome, 6 external Brewster sand traps and complete air pump plumbing. The tenders sport modernized features including a crew grip box and stoker motor box. Two models faithfully reproduce the E-2 Nine relocated and redesigned cab, which has never been offered as a model. Being predominantly brass in construction, details unrenderable in other materials are beautifully included on the BLI 4-12-2. BLI has worked hard to reproduce the distinctive sound of these locomotives. Superb accuracy and attention to detail, combined with the fine running qualities of BLI models and outstanding Paragon 2 DC/DCC sound make these models a must for every model railroad collector and operator.
