Features include a metal construction, metal trucks, 3-position reverse in the tender, an operating headlight, and metal wheels and axles.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eOriginally introduced in 1880 in the UK, the \"Atlantic\" or 4-4-2 would rise to prominence around the world in little to no time after its introduction. Respected and beloved around the world from the United States to Mozambique, the 4-4-2 found itself commissioned in various rail-yards across several continents. In the United States the 4-4-2 would sometimes be called the \"Milwaukee\" due to it running on the Milwaukee rail-road, but most would find that the \"Atlantic\" just rolled off the tongue a little bit better. In its construction the 4-4-2 saw an advantage over other locomotives thanks to its trailing wheels allowing for a deeper firebox in the driving wheels. Most of the Atlantic models would see their time in the spotlight come to an end, and would eventually go out of commission in the mid-20th century. Today handfuls exist in preservation status in various rail-road museums.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis item has been graded per TCA standards C-6: Very Good based on visual appearance.
