## Description

Prairie 2-6-2 steam locomotive - cb&q #2090 - N scale. In the early 1900S 2-6-2 steam locomotives began to appear along railroad lines that ran through the farms and fields of the Midwestern prairies. These engines became affectionately known as “prairies”. the 2 6 2 was developed as the first domestic freight engine with a trailing truck. Its performance at high speeds left much to be desired, however. Fortunately, the 2 6 2 found itself useful on dual service branch lines and logging lines. This N scale model boasts true to prototype body details.

Review: Wanted to add a locomotive to my collection. This seems to run well forward with 3 cars added to engine and coal car but struggles with more cars. Reverse is another story at times. Also no working head light :0(0: Decided to hold onto this N-Scale Locomotive LOL

I had just entered the world of model railroading and I wanted an authentic steam engine to start collection. The Bachmann Prarie locomotive was a perfect choice due accurate detailing and workmanship. I compare it a fine piece of jewelry.
