Well documented on the web and in literature, the Baldwin 2-4-0 J.W. Bowker Locomotive has a long and storied history. The "Bowker" was first reproduced for AHM by Rivarossi in 1973 with three road names: V&T, K.C.& St. L and the W&A. In 1976 AHM released 3 other road names: Y&PBR, B.&M.L.R.R. and this pristine MRRHQ Collectible HO Scale AHM 5072E B.M.R.R.Co. Bowker Locomotive. Though certainly not as famous as the original V&T Bowker, the second series of road names are much harder to find and very desirable.
