OverviewThe heaviest straight passenger locomotive ever produced, the famous Santa Fe 4-8-4 Northerns epitomized steam power. The steeply graded western lines of the Santa Fe required a locomotive with enormous power, and the Northern was the answer. The first Northerns were delivered from Baldwin in 1927. By the 1940s, the new oil-burning 2900 series had arrived and were known as the largest 4-8-4s ever built. With their tremendous sixteen wheel tenders, these Northerns measured over 120 feet long and were often rostered for the entire journey from Chicago to Los Angeles, a distance of over 1,700 miles! Modeled after the Santa Fe 2900-class Northerns, these beautiful and powerful RailKing models are equipped with Proto-Sound 3.0 and its unmatched, industry-leading features Did You Know? The Santa Fe 2900-class weighed in at a massive 510,150lbs - the heaviest Northerns ever built - because the war effort caused a scarcity of lighter weight materials when these 4-8-4s were built in 1944.
