This highly detailed locomotive is precisely 1:48 scale and was made of brass in Korea under the design and supervision of Fine Art Models in the U.S., who normally specialize in larger scale, really high end, scale railroad models. Features include a sleuth smoke unit, steam sounds, a bell, a whistle, scale RP-25 wheels and an electric coupler on the tender. This locomotive also includes a wooden box with Lionel logo, wooden display case.
