Introduced in 1915 to replace the 'A' class compounds on the heaviest duties, it was a simple superheated Pacific of novel appearance. The 'Ab' class handled all principle express trains, and until the advent of the 'K's and 'J's they were also the standard class of main-line freight locomotives. The 'Ab' was a very successful engine performing well over a range of freight and passenger duties. Eleven were rebuilt from 'Wab' class 1947 - 1957.
The pack contains 3 different NZ Ab Class locos & tenders, driver and coalman figures, including 12 months warranty, all updates and fixes for $7 US. Fully weathered version of locos add $1 per loco. Additional locos/numbers add $2 |
