Lionel 6-38076

CHESAPEAKE & OHIO BERKSHIRE 2-8-4 MAY

 

Scale-sized Lionel Berkshires pay tribute to one of the last great steam locomotive designs, including details unique to each road name. There is no trust plate on the Lionel model of #2699 (ex-PM Berkshire #1215) since the merger agreement between Pere Marquette and C&O dictated that only "paid off" locomotives could be re-lettered Chesapeake & Ohio. Purchased in 1946, Berkshires were among the last steamers to run on the Virginian Railway. Both Berkshires include all-new enhancements such as separate coal, individually opening water hatches, and more separately-applied handrails.
