HO RF-16 Sharknose Locomotive A/B B&O 857A / 857X with Paragon4 (BLI7694)

HO-scale RF-16 Sharknose Locomotive A-B Set in Baltimore & Ohio livery (857A/857X) with Paragon4 sound is an HO model designed to deliver an authentic Baldwin Sharknose experience on a modern layout. The A-B configuration pairs a powered A-unit with Paragon4 sound and a lightweight unpowered B-unit, allowing realistic ABA operation and convincing pulling power for freight runs.

Built for DC or DCC layouts, this model features Paragon4 Sound with Rolling Thunder, a dual‑mode decoder with Back EMF for smooth slow‑speed control, and all‑wheel electrical pickup. The ABS body rides on a die‑cast chassis for strength and tractive effort, with prototypical paint, road numbers, and lighting, plus separately applied details such as grab irons, horns, and a bell. MicroTrains‑compatible couplers and compatibility with Code 55/70/80 track (minimum 18-inch radius) make it ready to bring authentic Baldwin Sharknose presence and sound to your layout.
