IHC Premier 23000 AT&SF Class 3450 4-6-4 Hudson Locomotive #3456

"Santa Fe's first Hudsons, the 74" drivered 3450 class, built in 1927, appeared to be little more than an evolutionary development of the 3400-class Pacific. They were about the same size as a New York Central J-1b Hudson, but had somewhat less heating surface. They were rebuilt extensively in the late 1930's with 79" drivers, internal changes that reduced the heating surface slightly but improved boiler circulation, and a great deal of external plumbing." (From: "The Guide to North American Steam Locomotives" compiled by the late George H. Drury)

Produced in the early-mid 2000's, heavy, powerful, affordable and highly reliable, the IHC Hudsons are the finest and most highly detailed locomotives ever offered by this great, historic brand name. All aboard!
