Immerse yourself in the world of American model railroading with this Berkshire 2-8-4 Southern Pacific Trix 25983 steam locomotive, an HO 1:87 scale reproduction that is particularly faithful and richly detailed. This iconic Era III model captures the powerful appearance of Southern Pacific's great steam locomotives, in a deep black livery and with the number 3505.

Designed for demanding enthusiasts, this locomotive benefits from a predominantly metal construction and a remarkable level of finish. The numerous added details, the cabin finely outfitted with figures of the engineer and the fireman, as well as the careful reproduction of the piping and the valve gear further enhance the realism of the model.

This version is equipped with a digital decoder with advanced sound functions, compatible with DCC, mfx and RailCom. The factory-installed smoke generator and its dynamic exhaust vary with speed for a striking visual effect. The warm white and red LED lighting, cabin lighting, the number lighting, and the firebox flicker are separately controlled in digital operation.

To ensure excellent operation on a layout, the locomotive features a high-performance motor with an inertia flywheel, four driving axles, three of which are powered by connecting rods, traction tires, and a buffer capacitor to bridge power interruptions. The locomotive/tender connection is provided by a short, kinematic coupling, while the tender is equipped with a NEM socket.
