Product Information:
A total of 233 original USRA Heavy 2-8-2s were built, along with an additional 957 copies, representing 23 different railroads. This design proved to be extremely successful and widely adopted. While the USRA Heavy Mikados shared much of the same running gear as the Light Mikados, they featured boilers that were 10 inches larger in diameter and larger cylinders, resulting in approximately 10% greater tractive effort.
