"new" C&O J class 4-8-4

[jake_iv]

Model C&O? Want a "new" model loco? Start with the Bachmann Northern; replace the tender with a long USRA or long vande.  Re-letter for C&O J class.  Overall the loco is a fairly good representation of the C&O J class 4-8-4  some units had solid pilots and detail variations not hard to simulate.  Check out the C&O Historical Society web site for photos of several examples.
