WP&Y Steam Loco, 73, Sound, Limited Edition Skagway, Alaska:
The prospectors rush off the boat and onto a train of the White Pass & Yukon Railroad. They dream of riches, of gold in the Canadian northwest. The powerful Mikado, Number 73, whistles and the train departs. It snakes past spectacular waterfalls, vertiginous gorges and thick, forested valleys. Even in May, the snow drifts dwarf the train at the top of the pass. After crossing the famous White Pass, the train continues into the inhospitable interior.
For the prospectors and fortune seekers on your LGB layout, Number 73 now is available as a Limited Edition LGB/Aster model. Aster’s traditional handmade metal craftsmanship is combined with the latest digital LGB sound. The resulting locomotive is as impressive on your mantelpiece as in your garden railway.
Only 600 models will be made.
