Mantua 313-003 Union Pacific 2-6-0 Mogul Locomotive HO Scale
Mantua 313-003 Union Pacific 2-6-0 Mogul Locomotive
First developed in 1866, the 2-6-0 Mogul was the first locomotive to use the radially turning two-wheel front bogie truck. The Mogul was an all purpose locomotive, similar to the smaller 4-4-0 Americans, but with better freight capabilities due to a top speed limited to 50 miles per hour and better pulling power. Wide spaced drivers also made for easier maintenance.
