This unit released in 1981 is a fantastic version of the 4-6-4 in a roadname never produced in the postwar era.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis is an updated version of the classic Hudsons, except this one has electronic sound of steam and electronic horn.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eNote that Electronic SOS is a chuff-simulator using the \"dead air\" snow sound regularly interrupted as the speed increases or decreases. Pretty clever. Horn is electronic. It is from 1981, so these sounds are not what you hear in the more recent digital trains.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003ePLUS this listing includes the SIX Heavyweight cars Lionel released to go along with it--the original five and the uncatalogued add on diner released five years later. These are the \"junior\" heavyweights the same size as the current popular Polar Express style heavyweight passenger cars.\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong style=\"line-height: 200%;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #000000;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family: Times New Roman, serif;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: x-large;\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eENGINE FEATURES \u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr type=\"_moz\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"margin-bottom: 0in;
