Great Northern Empire Freight Express Set
EMPIRE BUILDERSomething new is rounding the bend at breakneck speed. It’s the original superpower, the famous Berkshire engine, now equipped with smoke deflecting “elephant ears” and a realistic Whistle Steam effect! From the flat Midwest to the mountainous West, and spanning the northernmost boundaries of the United States, the Great Northern Railway was truly an “Empire Builder”.
A famous passenger railway, the Great Northern also hauled a wide variety of freight east and west, until the 1970s when it merged with BNSF.
Equipped with RailSounds, smoke deflectors, and Whistle Steam, the Great Northern Berkshire and the classic string of colorful freight cars delivers more realism and fun to your layout.
