Lionel 6-28069 NYC Niagara 4-8-4 Century Club II Steam Engine & Tender 2 issues

  
History: The New York Central Niagara was the last effort by those who really wanted to see steam motive power continue and prosper on American railroads. They were created by Paul Kiefer, the ALCos Chief Mechanical Engineer of Motive Power and Rolling Stock, a steam locomotive aficionado determined to demonstrate not only that steam locomotives were competitive with diesel ones, but actually set out to create a steam locomotive that was superior. As they rolled out of Alcos workshops the new Niagara locomotives were put to work hauling the increasingly heavy passenger trains of the post war period. The Niagara had been created in the first place because train weights had become progressively too much for the New York Centrals tried and tested Hudsons. Now the big-name trains such as the Twentieth Century Limited and the dozen daily trains from New York to Chicago, The Chicagoan, The Commodore Vanderbilt, and The Empire State Express could be hauled at typical one hundred miles per hour speeds along the Centrals Water Level Route. This was what these engines had been designed for and they did it with efficiency, economy, and with the impressive sights and sounds that only a steam locomotive could deliver. This has already become a collectors item and is in high demand by collectors who want the very best that Lionel made.
