In the 1920's, the Southern Pacific had a need for powerful locomotives,
but found that the new articulated 2-8-8-2's did not work well for them.
They were a hazard to the crews when traveling through the long tunnels
and snow sheds on their system. The exhaust fumes were capable of blinding
and suffocating crew members, so to resolve this problem, the Southern
Pacific decided to run in reverse. The next articulated engines from
Baldwin were built with the cabs in the forward position. The SP
went on to build many classes of these "Cab-Forwards". Broadway
Limited Imports has modeled classes AC4 and AC5. Models are
available in black and also with the gray boiler. The AC4 and AC5
models are identical in detail. Broadway Limited has modeled these
Cab-Forwards before, but these are the first ones available with BLI's
state-of-the-art Paragon3 with Rolling Thunder sound and control system. Please continue
reading below for a list of model features.
