Pennsylvania O Scale Premier 2-8-0 H-3 Consolidation Steam Engine w/Proto-Sound 3.0 (Scale Wheels)
Overview
The Pennsy created seven classes of Consolidations with the earliest being the 1885 H-3. These 50 inch driver locomotives were the first Pennsylvania steam locomotives to utilize the road's trademark Belpaire firebox. Hundreds were built over a ten year span and were utilized in all levels of service before being replaced with the more common fat boilers of Pennsy's H-4 thru H-10 series of consols.
This small and diminutive 2-8-0 is the perfect choice for modelers looking for a scale proportioned 19th century steam locomotive. Intricately detailed and outfitted with the power and performance of Proto-Sound 2.0, the M.T.H. Pennsylvania H-3 is equipped with synchronized puffing smoke, Proto-Speed control for incredible slow speed action and the hobby's largest variety of prototypical steam engine sounds.
