"Sierra Nevada", although a freestyle model, owes its inspirations to the moguls of the "Denver & South Park" and "Colorado & Southern" lines.
The model is internally gas fired and has radio control for speed and direction. The cab roof lifts up sideways to give easy access te water, oil and gas fillers. The boiler is fitted with a water gauge as standard. If used with a boiler filling system, the engine can be kept in steam for long periods of time. The lubricator is fitted with an underfloor drain, and the gas can easily be regulated through the cab window.
The loco is enhanced with many brass castīngs and the tender has much rivet detail. The engine's chassis is well detailed and accurately represents the American bar frame type. The radio receiver and batteries are in the tender and are easily accessible under the dummy coal load.
"Sierra Nevada" is a powerful, good looking, American road loco, wlich will give hours of pleasure running on your raiiroad.
