First used on Japanese railways in the early 1900’s, the Mikado steam locomotive became one of the principal freight locomotives of North America. It has been estimated that the Mikado (meaning \"Emperor\" in Japanese) represented one out of every five locomotives used in early postwar service. The excellent starting tractive effort of these 2-8-2 steam locomotives made them great fast-speed haulers of heavy freight, securing them a place of importance on American railways. Their handsome, well-balanced design and unique history have intrigued locomotive fans to the present. Equipped with TMCC, RailSounds, and many separately applied metal details, these scale-sized engines are available in four liveries and offered at a great price. A caboose for each Mikado is also available.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIntroduced at the turn of the 20th century, the 2-8-2 was an innovator breaking from the traditional manufacturing of locomotives, and featuring a larger firebox paving the way for greater speeds at a higher rate of power! Before we knew it, the 2-8-2 also known as the \"Mikado\" found itself in rail yards around the world from the United States to the Congo hauling freight from stop to stop. The Mikado would undergo a temporary name change after the Pearl Harbor bombing in 1941 shortly going by the McArthur, before eventually going back to the Mikado name after WW2.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCondition:\u003c\/strong\u003e Factory New (\u003ca href=\"#\" title=\"C-9: All original; unused; factory rubs and evidence of handling, shipping and factory test run.
