Bachmann 82105 Spectrum HO Scale N&W J 4-8-4 Freight Steam Locomotive #608 – Model Train Junction: Quality Parts and Art Supplies

Here is a Bachmann 82105 Spectrum HO Scale N&W J 4-8-4 Freight Steam Locomotive #608. One of Bachmanns best-selling HO scale locomotives comes to the Spectrum line with all new tooling and technology. The Class J 4-8-4 was the last mainline steam locomotive to run in the United States. Designed for optimum speed, the J once reached 115 mph during a land speed test until a hesitant engineer closed the throttle. Features include: DCC-ready operating headlight separately applied metal parts alligator cross heads see-through frame RP25 wheels E-Z Mate Mark II couplers.

First introduced in the early 20th century, the 4-8-4 to rail yards by storm primarily hauling coal and other forms of freight across state lines in the US and rail-ways in various other countries. While later models would improve on the 4-8-4’s limitation, this locomotive still made its place in history as a pioneer of 20th century rail-road industry, and is featured in some museums today as a testament to how far the industry has truly come!
