CP G-3-g 2398

CP G-3-g class steam locomotive 2398 was built in 1942 by the Canadian locomotive company. These locomotives were dual service engines which were very capable in both passenger and freight service. They were considered by many crews to be the best engines on the CPR. 2398 specifically, was one of a select few engines that CP upgraded with ATC to run on NYC territory. Because of this, this engine was often assigned to the Toronto-Buffalo-New York trains, jointly run by the CP, TH&B, and NYC.

 

My Lego model is built to a 1:48 scale. It is powered by two power functions L motors geared directly to the drivers. I tried to jam in as much detail as possible including the ATC equipment. The connecting rods and driving wheels are all 3D printed and are recreated from original CP diagrams and are very accurate to this class.
