SOME HISTORY: (Excerpt from "Iron Horses of the Santa Fe Trail)
"By 1919, the Santa Fe realized the need for a larger and more modern
heavy freight locomotive. In the the years intervening since it had
pioneered the 2-10-2 type, the philosophy dictating the elements of the
design had become completely altered, and the 3800 Class owes little to
its earlier sisters. These large, modern engines were more an extension
of the Mikado type by an additional driving axle than they were a
derivative of the 900 and 1600 Class." "From 1919 through 1927, the 3800
Class was the standard heavy freight power on the system....
The road owned a total of 140 locomotives of this class...The Santa
Fe Type served its owner and originator very well."

This locomotive as modeled is a representative of the coal burning Eastern
and Colorado lines 2-10-2's of the series 3800-3828 which carried a
"Hodges" trailing truck. No. 3827 was built in 1919 by the Baldwin
Locomotive Works and carried builder's number 52117. With a weight on
63" drivers of 322,200 lbs, a total weight of 414,700 lbs, boiler pressure
of 220 PSI and a tractive force of 85,360 lbs, it was capable of handling
800 tons up the 3% grades of Raton Pass and equally adept at handling other
grades, particularly in tandem with others of her class. It is modeled here
as it appeared in the 1940's, with its 15,000 gallon coal tender.
3827 survived until 1952.It also has updated shapes and textures from the
original model.
