Constructed between the 1900s and 1940s, the Baldwin 2-8-0 proved to be one of the most popular locomotives in the manufacturer's catalog. Typically found in freight service, the 2-8-0 was a versatile locomotive that could just as easily handle a passenger train, and several have survived into preservation where they continue to perform this role. Bachmann's HO Scale Baldwin 2-8-0 replicates the iconic design with intricate detail. With features such as separately applied piping and grab irons, operating metal drivers, and Rule 17 lighting, the model arrives with Econami™ Sound Value® DCC. Factory-set for realism, the Econami™ steam package offers a choice of 16 whistles, 6 bell types, 4 prototypical chuffs, 5 air pumps, and 4 dynamos plus cylinder cocks, grade crossing signal, blowdown, brake squeal/release, coupling/uncoupling, water stop, and "All aboard"/coach doors—all in 16-bit polyphonic sound.
