IHCM9934 B&O Class P7 "President Jefferson" 4-6-2 Heavy Pacific Locomotive #5311 HO Scale
IHCM9903 B&O Class P7 "President Jefferson" 4-6-2 Heavy Pacific Locomotive #5311
All of the B&O's 4-6-2s are remembered for their good looks thanks to a clean, semi-streamlined look and symmetrical appearance (notably a result of evenly spaced drivers and a centered headlight, number-board, and "B&O" logo on the smokebox). This was especially true for the P-7's, which arrived from Baldwin in 1927 numbered 5300-5319. The locomotives became known as the Presidential Class since all twenty were named (and lettered) after the first twenty presidents of the United States. They were also presented in a stunning livery of olive green with gold trim.
IHC offered two Presidential Class P-7s, the President Jefferson and President Fillmore. Both were correctly labeled on the cabs but, oddly, had the same Tender numbered 5311. Though correct for the Fillmore, the Jefferson was actually #5302. Weird, huh?
