🔎 Collector’s Note:

The Southern Railway’s 4-8-4 Northerns were known for their strength and streamlined design, making them ideal for both passenger and freight service. This model captures that same spirit in N scale and is an excellent addition for collectors and operators alike.

Disclaimer:

These locomotives are factory brand new and ready to run, recently uncovered during a warehouse inventory. They were originally produced in partnership with Rivarossi of Italy, a manufacturer that is no longer in operation, making these models especially unique and difficult to find today.
