AMERICAN MODELS INTRODUCES
A DETAILED 4-8-4 NORTHERN

lbs.

.......................................................... $449.95
FEATURES:
Die cast boiler, frame, wheel centers, pilot, cab trucks, tender and trucks,
metal wire details, headlight, powerful 5 pole motor.
Smoke (with on/off switch), choo choo chug sound with 2 chug per revolution
mechanical piston drive unit (twice the speed of the old flyer for realism),
all 16 tender wheels are flanged and pick up electrical current.
Fully compatible with AF 20" radius track.
Limited production run, Prepurchase advised.
Will also be offered in Rock Island's Oil Burning 5100's (5110 & 5115) and
Lehigh Valley and The Burlington Route which will be available with 6 wheel
coal tender.
The incorporation of detailed Die Cast construction, wire handrails, more
realistic prototypical mechanical chug, on/off smoke, electronic bell and
whistle, 5 pole motor with AM's rugged drive system, added details like brakes
and jeweled marker lamps, all demonstrate contemporary technologies. The
design goal was to incorporate the new available technologies and greater
detail to blend with engines designed and manufactured years ago.
Consequently, the ultimate challenge of designing the largest and most detailed
Northern with a sixteen all wheel pick up tender to run on 20 inch radius AF
type curve track while maintaining as much prototypical detail was addressed.
This Locomotive is totally compatible with American Flyer (R) track and will
bring detailed "BIG STEAM POWER" with realism and sound to your layout scale or
High Rail. The limited lifetime warranty completes the greatest offer ever made
for a new "S" Gauge Steam engine.
Expected delivery January 2006.
Limited production run, Prepurchase advised.
