Roundhouse 84910 NYC Class G-2 2-8-0 Consolidation Locomotive #2414 with DCC/DC Sound

From its introduction in 1866 and well into the early twentieth century, the 2-8-0 design was considered to be the ultimate heavy freight locomotive. The 2-8-0’s forte was starting and moving 'impressive loads at unimpressive speeds' and its versatility gave the type its longevity. The practical limit of the design was reached in 1915, when it was realized that there was no further development possible with a locomotive of this wheel arrangement.

Built from upgraded and re-manufactured vintage original Roundhouse tooling and decked out with modern can motors and razor sharp graphics, these late production Roundhouse steamers are some of the quietest and smoothest running locomotives ever produced. With a gorgeous glossy black paint job reminiscent of the legendary Mantua Clinchfield, it is also one of the most beautiful.
