The 2-8-2 is light years ahead of anything made by "L" in S. 

ROBBY:  Light years ahead was good enough for me. 

Although some of the detail is oversized (handrails, stanchions, bell 
cord, and of course the wheel flanges) the overall look is 
excellent.  

ROBBY:  I thought that the handrails were too thick from the picture.

Other nice touches, are the different configuration for the B&O and 
NYC.  It is strange that they would so concerned about this aspect of 
the prototype and then offer both as passenger sets. I am not saying 
that 2-8-2s never pulled passenger trains on the B&O and NYC, it is 
just I am sure it was rare and only when no passenger power would 
have been available. 

ROBBY:  The B&O, not the NYC, was sold with passenger cars.  The B&O 
Mikado and the B&O passenger cars should have been sold seperately.  
Of course the SHS B&O loco will not have the same baggage!
