Description:
Prototype:
In their quest to reduce fuel cost while increasing traction effort for new steam locomotive North American designers developed a new wide smoke box design that allowed the use of anthracite waste as cheap fuel source. Introduced during the second half of the 19th century the new smoke box was so wide that it would have blocked the view of the engineer. Thus the engineer's cab had to be moved atop and astride the boiler. Only the fireman remained in his usual place between gearbox and the tender. To this day the camelback design is also know under somewhat peculiar name Mother Hub bard in the US. Camelbacks like it were build up until 1927 when construction of new camelbacks was banned for safety reasons.
Model:
