Lionel 6-82770 Virginian 2-6-6-6 Allegheny Steam Engine with Legacy
|
A locomotive that can only be summed up in superlatives ? the Allegheny was by any measurement an impressive machine! In many ways, it was even bigger than the Big Boy. Built to handle the heavy coal trains and steep grades of the Chesapeake & Ohio and Virginian, the Allegheny produced an astonishing 110,200 pounds of tractive effort. Though built for power, the locomotives were known to stretch their legs at up to 60 mph and even pulled passenger trains on occasion.
This new release of Lionel's Allegheny includes a meticulously detailed body, along with the latest LEGACY technology and Whistle Steam! Included in this offering are models of the two surviving Alleghenies ? No. 1601 at the Henry Ford Museum in Dearborn, MI and No. 1604 at the B&O Museum in Baltimore, MD.
