Excerpt from included Roundhouse 491 documents:
"Roundhouse Products proudly makes available in HO Scale an exact reproduction of one of America's true classics, an original, vintage "Old Timer" 2-6-0 Mogul locomotive as designed and built by the Baldwin Locomotive Works in the 1880's.
America's original little giant, as used by most major and smaller railroads throughout the United States. This style of locomotive was designed for freight service and were many times used in groups of two, or even four engines, especially when handling long drags of freights in the "High Rocky" mountain regions of the Colorados."
You WILL NOT find a finer example of this great classic kit.
