Bachmann 4-8-4 Overland Limited

Description
A do-over of my first ever workshop item. I've learned a lot over the years, and I figured this would be a good way to show how far I've come. So here's this horrific thing.

Originally released by Bachmann in 1994 as part of the Overland Limited set, this 4-8-4 is... visually confusing. It's an NYC Niagara with a Vanderbilt tender in Union Pacific colors. Supposedly the tooling wasn't (and still isn't) great, but what do I know?

This 4-8-4... thing... is ready to do all the heavy lifting on your layout, even if you don't want it to! It's at my door demanding to pull a train up Sherman Hill as we speak! Please help.

Credit to Bachmann for whatever the hell this thing actually is.

If you can believe it the older tooling is actually better aesthetically.

Just the engine, unfortunately.

just the engine or are the freight cars included as well?
