Description
RF-16 Sharknose HO-scale A-B Locomotive Set with Paragon4 Sound reproduces Baldwin’s iconic Sharknose diesel in a faithful A-B pairing for HO layouts. The powered A-unit features Paragon4 Sound, while an unpowered B-unit adds a lightweight trailing unit, with prototypically accurate NYC paint schemes and road numbers (3805 and 3707, including the 3707 “Cigar†variant) and road-specific lighting.
Equipped with a dual-mode decoder with Back EMF for smooth slow-speed operation on both DC and DCC, and a drive system engineered for heavy towing and steady starts. It has all-wheel electrical pickup, a die-cast chassis for maximum tractive effort, an ABS body, and separately applied details such as grab irons, horns, and bells. Prototypical sounds, MicroTrains-compatible couplers, and operation on Code 55/70/80 rails complete the package, with a minimum radius of 18 inches for realistic curves.
