Their distinctive contours were reminiscent of Raymond Loewy's design for the Pennsy's T1 class steam locomotive. Baldwin built a total of 160 of these locomotives - 109 A-units and 51 cabless booster B-units. In addition to the PRR, B\u0026amp;O and NYC railroads also operated a substantial number of the \"Sharks\".\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family: Arial; font-size: small;\"\u003eThe Sharknose locomotives were known as excellent \"luggers\". They regularly saw service hauling heavy ore and coal drags. The RF-16 Sharknose locomotives beat the F7 with 100 additional horsepower and tied the FA2 with 1600 horsepower. Unfortunately, they did not last as long as the F7's. With a few exceptions, most of the engines were retired by 1967.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family: Arial; font-size: small;\"\u003eIn this production, we are offering single A and B units in five prototypically accurate paint schemes. In addition to the prototypically accurate models, we are building models in several fantasy paint schemes that never quite made it to reality, but would have been beautiful on the rails. The CNJ and the MP owned Baldwin babyface locomotives, but didn't order the Sharks. The DMIR owned the EJ\u0026amp;E Sharks for a few months, but never repainted them. We have painted the models in a prototypical DMIR paint scheme. The ATSF and the SP tested the Baldwin demo set, but declined to order production models. We are offering models decorated in the appropriate ATSF and SP liveries if those railroads had decided to operate the \"Sharks\".\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family: Arial; font-size: small;\"\u003eIn addition to the Paragon4 version of these models, we are offering models in our Stealth Series. These are No-Sound \/ DCC-Ready models that operate on DC out of the box, or a modeler can easily install their DCC decoder of choice. Out of the box, front and rear lights are directional, and other lights are always ON with track power. Additionally some light functions may be missing depending on selected aftermarket decoder the modeler installs.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family: Arial; font-size: small;\"\u003eList of individually controllable lights in our Sharknose models (note that light options may be limited in Stealth Series models):\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family: Arial; font-size: small;\"\u003eHeadlight\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family: Arial; font-size: small;\"\u003eRear Light\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family: Arial; font-size: small;\"\u003eNumberboard Lights\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family: Arial; font-size: small;\"\u003eMarker Lights\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cdiv align=\"center\"\u003e\u003ccenter\u003e\n\u003ctable border=\"0\" cellspacing=\"0\" cellpadding=\"0\" width=\"100%\"\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd width=\"36%\" align=\"left\"\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cu\u003e\u003cspan\u003eIndustry-leading\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e Model Features\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/u\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cu\u003e:\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/u\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd width=\"2%\" align=\"left\"\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd width=\"36%\" align=\"left\" valign=\"top\"\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family: Arial;\"\u003eStealth Series - Model is DCC-Ready out of the box.
