1919 for service on the pennsylvania railroad, this early mallet was the heavy-duty successor to the earlier, experimental CC1. This year, lionel brings it to market with the exquisite detailing and revolutionary features that make it truly vision-ary. Weighing over 458,000 lbs, the hefty and powerful CC2s mallets were used for a variety of services including working the hump on yard duty and transfer runs. As with other compound engines, steam was first fed to the rear cylinders and then forced forward to the larger low pressure cylinders in the front. The massive front cylinders on the CC2s were positioned unusually high, which insured adequate track clearance when the locomotive was in operation. While 0-8-8-0 engines were replaced over time by simple powered articulated steam engines, a number of these big bruisers continued to pull heavy transfer runs and service the hump yards through the 1940s.
