For those model railroaders modeling the Norfolk and Western, Norfolk Southern, or those who are just a fan of steam locomotives, ScaleTrains has today announced a new run of the iconic Norfolk and Western J class locomotives as well as reintroducing former MTH models of the Powhatan Arrow consist in HO scale.
Road numbers offered will be Nos. 600 and 602 as built, 611 and 613 as built, and 611 in her post 2015 paint, featuring the words “Spirit of Roanoke” under the cab window.
The engines will feature a diecast body and tender with such details as a legible builder’s plate from the East End Shops.
The locomotive is also equipped with LED lighting that includes the front headlight and tender back up light, number boards, cab interior, and class lights which will be illuminated white, green, or off. The sound system includes two speakers, one in the boiler and one in the tender.
The reintroduction of Powhatan Arrow consist includes a Pullman-Standard Crew Coach, a Pullman-Standard Compartment Coach, Pullman-Standard Coach, Pullman-Standard Diner, and Pullman-Standard Observation car to bring up the rear. All cars are sold separately.
