Model Information:
 The 2-8-8-2 USRA Type Mallet is next steam locomotive being developed by Aristo-Craft.  The Mallet is a wonderfully huge locomotive. It would look great on a big layout with generous curves. Built on a pair of our 4 axle ball bearing equipped power trucks, the Mallet is sure to raise the bar and create a higher standard for all G-Scale steam locomotives.
