Product Information

This Broadway Limited Class S2 6-8-6 Turbine locomotive is based on the world's first and only locomotive with a 6-8-6 wheel configuration was introduced in 1944. The Pennsy Railroad's S2 direct-drive steam turbine powered locomotive was a unique experiment in motive power. Its six-wheel leading truck, eight drive wheels, and six-wheel trailing truck made for a massive running platform that was quite efficient when the S2 was at speed. This brass-hybrid engine features a brass boiler, cab and tender body, plus a heavy die cast chassis. This model has full Paragon4 sound and DCC with a GoPack for realistic, reliable sound and motor control. The Paragon4 sound system works with all Broadway Limited Rolling Thunder(TM) advanced sound systems. Other features include a smooth-running flywheel-equipped drive, era-appropriate detailing and magnetic knuckle couplers. The Class S2 6-8-6 can be operated on all DCC systems as well as on standard DC railroads (with limited sound functionality). Th
