This Bachmann HO Scale 4-4-0 with Wood Tender is based on the fancy steam locomotives from North America′s early days of railroading. Decorated in colorful schemes, locomotives like this were favorites from the mid-1800s and lasted into the early 1900s when replaced by much larger engines. This modern model of a vintage classic features a detailed injection-molded body, fine decoration and E-Z Mate(R) Mark II knuckle couplers. It performs best on 18′ or larger radius curves. The Bachmann Sound Value steam locomotive is DCC-equipped with a SoundTraxx(R) decoder for sound, speed, direction, and lighting control, and is ready-to-run for either analog layout or DCC operation. The 4-4-0 with Wood Tender is one of many Bachmann HO Scale locomotives.WARNING: This product can expose you to chemicals including Lead, which is known to the State of California to cause cancer and birth defects or other reproductive harm.
