At under $450, this upgraded Camelback steamers mark the lowest priced, scale-sized, Lionel steam locomotives ever offered with the TrainMaster Command Control system. Camelbacks were fast, clean and efficient haulers of the eastern "Anthracite roads." The locomotive's extra-wide firebox allowed it to burn waste anthracite coal that once was thought of as a useless by-product. The unusual design proved successful in both freight and passenger service. The Lionel Camelback steam locomotives feature upgrades from their previous release such as an improved RailSounds sound system with controls conveniently hidden beneath the opening tender water hatch. The cab roof hatch also opens.
