Description: When Lima set out to build the 2-8-4, it needed to make the grade - literally! Designed for tonnage on the steep and curving grades of the Boston & Albany and Boston & Maine routes, the new design was named for the mountains which inspired it. But the success of these machines roamed far beyond the Berkshires. Locomotives of this type, indeed some of these original Berkshires themselves, found their way into mountains from coast to coast. Reintroduced in the Lionel roundhouse for the first time in nearly a decade, the A-1 Berkshire is now available with the added features of Whistle Steam and Bluetooth control. So whether you're favoring the mountains of New England, Appalachia, southern California or anywhere in between, we're got the locomotive you need to make the grade.LEGACY® Control System equipped – able to run in LEGACY® Control mode, in TrainMaster Command Control mode, or in Conventional mode with a standard transformerBluetooth® Control - Operate with Universal Remote or LionChief® AppLionel Voice Control (LVC) - run your locomotive by speaking commands into your phone via LionChief® AppOdyssey® II Speed ControlIR Transmitter that works with LCS SensorTrack™Powerful maintenance-free motor with momentum flywheelWireless Tether™ connection between locomotive and tenderElectroCoupler™ on rear of tenderDirectional lighting including operating headlight and back-up light on rear of tenderBicolor illuminated classification lights on the front of locomotive where applicable.
