Hi All,
We are pleased to announce our latest custom run from MTH! We are taking creative license and proposing an alternative situation playing out in history!
This engine represents what we think the N&W J #611 would have looked like had it been chosen to pull the Chessie Steam Special. It's not too farfetched of a thought as the engine was considered to be one of the American Freedom Train locomotives but was ultimately not chosen. Our thinking is what if it had been chosen for AFT duty instead of Reading T1 #2101? Then after the AFT ended, it was used again for the Chessie Steam Special celebrating the B&O Railroad's 150th and 151st Birthdays. Our engine is what it might have looked like in Chessie blue, orange, and yellow had this scenario happened! This engine will be made in very limited quantity, so get them while you can!
Please see the new offering below!
