8976 Lehigh Valley #2097, w/ Black Diamond, Paragon4 Sound/DC/DCC, Smoke, HO (Trainworld Exclusive)

These HO scale brass locomotives are finely crafted, hand-assembled models designed for collectors who appreciate the artistry of brass. While not based on specific prototypes, each locomotive is decorated in imaginative paint schemes inspired by authentic liveries once used by the same railroads. Utilizing our Santa Fe Blue Goose tooling, these models offer a unique blend of realism and creativity—combining the high-end detailing of brass construction with striking fantasy finishes that stand out on any display shelf or layout.

Our streamlined Hudson pays tribute to Lehigh Valley 4-6-2's that were streamlined for various passenger trains. In the late 1930's and early ’40s L.V streamlined several of itsĀ  passenger trains.Ā 

All models are available in two configurations: Paragon4 Sound/DC/DCC with Smoke or our Stealth Series—No-Sound, DCC-Ready models with factory-installed speakers. The Stealth Series allows customers to easily install their own 21-pin DCC decoder for a simple, ā€œplug-and-playā€ upgrade.
