Precision Scale O-Scale Brass C&O Allegheny H-8 Locomotive
Brass O-Scale Chesapeake & Ohio H-8 Allegheny (2-6-6-6) Locomotive – This is a fine example of the model builder’s skills thirty years ago when things were really carefully made; from D & D Mfg Company in Korea and imported by the legendary Precision Scale Co., Crown Series. A beautifully crafted scale model of the final run of these massive locomotives with road number 1659 – the last prototype delivered in the series made by Lima Locomotive Works of Lima, Ohio. The order was placed in 1947 and was delivered in December 1948. The Chesapeake & Ohio railroad, always a leader in articulated designs, bought this massive late steam-era locomotive to pull an entire train from Russell through Columbus to the Port of Toledo without changing locomotives in Columbus. The culmination of the “H” class (encompassing all of C&O’s articulated designs), the H-8 was the largest, heaviest, most powerful and most flexible in their uses whether hauling coal, freight or passenger consists. The incorporation of new steam technologies including super-heated steam, automatic stokers and locating the firebox behind the last drivers enabled the design of ever larger and more powerful locomotives. Adding the third axel to the trailing truck with larger rear wheel (43” diameter with first two at 36” diameter to create space for a booster engine) allowed for a much larger firebox plus the addition of over-fire jets improved combustion of the late run H-8s (road numbers 1645-1659). The prototype for this reproduction of #1659 was purchased in 1948, weighted a massive 1.183M pounds with tender and cost $395,000. C&O actually won a large settlement from Lima due to over-weight issues. This magnificent locomotive produced 7,498 draw-bar horsepower and regularly moved 14K tons at 45 MPH!This exceptional example is factory painted brass exhibiting many superb details and careful construction techniques including steel plate seams and boiler sheathing texture, rivets, steam and air-line detailing, casting marks, steps, railing lights, lubricators, reversing gear, Worthington cold water pump, injectors, air compressors and compressed air tanks (3), hard rockers, feed water pumps and other elements so important in great modeling. Great detail is evident in the running gear too – including the drivers with accurate spokes and counterweight outer surface, connecting rods including main, primary side rods and forward rods plus reversing gear, automatic lubricating rods are all shown in detail. Worthington open type feed water heater, near the smoke box, using exhaust steam could return about 14% of the water used from the tender.The prototype tender’s capacity was 25 tons of coal and 25,000 gals of water. This fine reproduction is well detailed including the three and four axel Buckeye trucks with clear suspension details shown, automatic stoker, reversing and running lights, electrical conduits, crisp rivets, ladders and hand rails, water tank covers (operating on this model), auger details in coal bunker with vertical support plates inside, accurate inspection access coal doors (operating on this model) from cab area including light inside the bunker, tool boxes and hangers for re-railers, water lines and steam lines. Only two prototype examples of this fine locomotive remain (at the Ford Museum and in Baltimore, MD) so to acquire such a fine example of this exceptional late-steam era locomotive is rare. This great looking design also used 67” diameter drivers providing for improved traction needed hauling loads up steep grades through the Appalachians. A powerful locomotive that hauled both coal and manifest freight and was also fast enough to occasionally be used in passenger service especially during WWII with extended troop movements.I am a collector - not a dealer - and this amazing model, which has been in our collection for over thirty years and was finally opened (purchased new 17 MAR 92) and put on display about a year ago, is being offered so that we might expand into other areas of brass locomotive collecting mainly different railway lines from the C&O. Please review all details and photos carefully as no returns are possible - please ask any questions necessary to resolve any doubts or concerns that you may have regarding this rare H-8 from Precision Scale. This fine model will be shipped in its original box with original packing materials, double boxed, at buyer's expense and we recommend shipping via UPS or USPS Priority Mail insured.
