HO Scale "Oh, So Steamy!" Steam Generator Car
HO SCALE STEAM GENERATOR CAR - $59.95
NEW SCHEMES ANNOUNCED!!
For most of the 20th century, passenger trains were heated by steam. The problem was, once diesel locomotive use became widespread in the 1940s, there was no longer a guaranteed source of steam at the head end. Many railroads developed Steam Generator Units to create the steam for on-board heating.
Our new HO Scale "Oh, So Steamy!" Steam Generator Car actually generates a steam effect and expels it through the "Separator Blowdown Funnel" on the bottom of the car. Hook it up behind your locomotives, turn on the steam, ease the throttle, and watch as steam wisps out from underneath your passenger cars, just like it did on the real thing. The steam is non-toxic and actually cleans your track! And unlike most smoke-equipped steam engines, the steam fluid will not leave a yucky residue all over your layout.
The "Oh, So Steamy!" Steam Generator Car also features working backup lights. You can turn the steam and the lights on and off using the Rapido Lighter (included). The car also includes EVERY pipe that is underneath the prototype - we banged our heads on the real ones enough times to know - as well as beautiful BX express trucks and painted grab irons installed at the factory. Several car numbers are available for each paint scheme.
The "Oh, So Steamy" Steam Generator Car features:
- Real "steam" effect which can be turned on and off by a hidden switch
- Operating backup lights, which can be turned on and off by a hidden switch
- Works on DC and DCC layouts
- Full underbody detail, including ALL steam and air lines
- See-through etched metal platforms
- Separate, metal brake chain (sorry - it doesn't work)
- Accurate BX express trucks
- Reliable electrical pickup
- Separate metal grab irons painted and applied at the factory
- A must for any railroad that operated passenger trains in cold weather
