This locomotive features a 16-VC tender and is equipped with the advanced Paragon 4 sound and control system. Originally delivered in the 1940s, the K-2 series is identifiable by its distinctive Elesco feedwater heaters and the flying air pumps mounted on the smokebox door. Although initially paired with 12,000 gallon Vanderbilt tenders, many Mikados transitioned to the larger 16,000 gallon tenders, illustrating the evolving needs of the railway.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCrafted with a substantial emphasis on detail, the model showcases a handcrafted brass boiler, cab, and tender body, complemented by a heavy die-cast chassis designed to enhance traction. The intricate detailing includes prototypical light operations, effective smoke effects synchronized with chuff sounds, and a selection of additional details that enhance its realism, such as separately applied handrails and figures of an engineer and fireman. Providing a minimum recommended radius of 18 inches for its operation, this model stands as an impressive addition to any model train collection.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Broadway Limited Imports (BLI)","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47933671931956,"sku":"BLI7594","price":764.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0597\/6653\/8292\/files\/bli7594_a0_87mgfrdt.jpg?v=1782313784","url":"https:\/\/nankinhobby.com\/products\/bli7594","provider":"Nankin Hobby","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
