"The General" Train Overview:
Bachmann 4-4-0 American - Western and Atlantic "The General" With Wood Load. From moving troops and supplies in a divided nation to definitively uniting the country in steel at Promontory, it’s little wonder that the 4-4-0 is known simply as the “American.” Larger than its predecessors and powerful enough to transform the railroad into an essential transcontinental system, the 4-4-0 was further immortalized in later years as a star in countless Western movies. To this day, its classic appearance and opulent decoration evoke the adventurous spirit of the Old West and the pioneering determination of a nation in its youth!
The Bachmann 4-4-0 American is equipped with Soundtraxx Econami DCC for an immersive steam locomotive experience. Effects include a prototypical chuff, factory-programmed single chime whistle, bell, air pump, steam release, blower, and much more - all in 16-bit polyphonic sound. Your American adventure is calling with the Bachmann sound-equipped HO Scale 4-4-0!
