From BLW/ZT... The BL2 Boston And Maine set !

The EMD BL2 is a four-axle B-B road switcher built by General Motors Electro-Motive Division (EMD).
Often considered the "Ugly Duckling" of diesel offerings from EMD,
the BL2 set the stage for the company's widely successful GP series of locomotives.

This locomotive was sold for both freight and passenger service.
The locomotive's carbody lacked the full-length walkways of subsequent GP diesels,
making it difficult for the brakeman or switchman to move from one point
on the locomotive to another during switching operations.
Finally, although the industrial designers at EMD tried to build a carbody that
evoked high-class passenger trains while retaining the utilitarianism of railroad work,
the visual design never quite became popular.

The BLW BL2 Boston And Maine Set includes :

4 Engines painted as delivered in 1947 with black handrails and black bogies

4 Engines painted as in 1955 with yellow handrails and silver bogies

Numbers "1550" "1551" "1552" & "1553"

All with virtual view
Custom Cab with night view and custom Sound
