Overview:

Once "big power" in the late 19th Century, Ten-wheelers later became mainstays on commuter and branch lines where their mid-sized drivers suited them well for rapid acceleration in both freight and passenger duties. Based on the New York Central's F-12 class, Lionel's model represents one of the more modern 4-6-0 designs to be found anywhere. Even with its "modern" size and appliances, these locomotives still retain some of the charm of their history. As such, we've included a few "Heritage" Ten-wheelers in this run as well. So, whether you prefer a workhorse for your milk run or something a little more stately for a sprint down the mainline, we're sure you'll find these a "10!"
