Here is a good looking and unique Lionel steam locomotive, a powerful Union Pacific 0-8-0 with a unique and clean looking black exterior and an equally unique tender with electronic whistle. It has a neat two tone paint scheme--black and dark metallic graphite silver on the front. This locomotive will definitely add character to anyone's layout--it is not the typical 2-4-2 style, and it has a different style look than most other Lionel engines. PLUS it has some features that you do not find in lots of other moderately priced locomotives such as
Silver metal rims on wheels and
Engineer and fireman figures

The electronic whistle is not the same as Railsounds digital sounds, but it is unique and fun.
I really like how this one has the cool UP Overland shield on the front of the engine and the tender. You can make your own Heritage steam train!
Note that the lens on the rear of the tender simulates a tender back up light--Lionel did not wire this "light" for operation.
