Model: The locomotive has an mfx+ digital decoder and extensive sound functions. It also has controlled, high-efficiency propulsion with a flywheel, mounted in the boiler. One axle powered, three axles powered using side rods. Traction tires. The locomotive and tender are constructed mostly of metal. The locomotive has a factory-installed smoke unit with dynamic smoke exhaust, which varies with the speed. Dual headlights change over with the direction of travel, will work in conventional operation, and can be controlled digitally. Cab lighting and firebox flickering can be controlled separately in digital operation. Maintenance-free, warm white and red LEDs are used for the lighting. There is a buffer capacitor. There is a close coupling with a guide mechanism between the locomotive and tender. There is a close coupler with a guide mechanism in an NEM pocket on the back of the tender. The buffer height on the locomotive and tender conform to the NEM. The minimum radius for operation is 437.5 mm / 17-1/4" radius. With slight limitations Radius 1 operation in also possible. Piston rod protection sleeves and brake hoses are included.
Length over the buffers approximately 31 cm / 12-3/16".
