2-8-4 Berkshire
Here we have the flagship 2-8-4’s, the NKP Class S-2 and PM Class N-1, and as an added bonus, the Polar Express!
These super steamers came out in the mid-’40s and while not near as powerful as some of the articulated locomotives of that time, they could haul fast freight and do it right.
A big thanks to MrCheesecake for the awesome sounds!
