HO RF-16 Sharknose Locomotive A B&O 857 As-Delivered with Paragon4 (BLI7695)

HO-scale RF-16 Sharknose Locomotive in Baltimore & Ohio livery, number 857, delivered as originally equipped with Paragon4 sound, is presented as an A-B set that pairs a powered A-unit with Paragon4 Sound/DC/DCC and an unpowered B-unit with a lightweight frame. An additional powered A-unit is available separately for a complete ABA configuration.

Powered by Paragon4 Sound with Rolling Thunder, the model uses a dual-mode decoder for smooth slow-speed operation in both DC and DCC. It features a precision drive designed for heavy towing, all-wheel electrical pickup, an ABS body with a die-cast chassis for maximum traction, and prototypical detailing and lighting. It supports MicroTrains-compatible couplers and runs on Code 55, Code 70, and Code 80 rails with an 18-inch minimum radius, making it well suited for modern HO layouts and realistic operation.
