The K-Line K2499-0052CV i Virginian Trainmaster an O scale (1:48) 3-rail model of the Fairbanks-Morse H-24-66 Trainmaster diesel locomotive in the striking blue and yellow livery of the Virginian Railway (Cab #52), released around 2005.

Scale / Gauge: O Scale / O Gauge (3-Rail)

Road Name: Virginian Railway (VGN)

Road Number: 52

Operation: Conventional operation using a standard AC transformer (CV suffix typically denotes conventional models, distinct from CC/TMCC command control versions).

Prototype History: Modeled after the real-life 2,400-horsepower Fairbanks-Morse Trainmaster introduced in 1953, which was celebrated for its massive pulling power and distinct profile.

Visual Details: K-Line's Trainmaster is praised by collectors for fine details like open grates over simulated roof fans, painted handrails for a realistic matte appearance, and crisp Virginian blue-and-yellow paint.

Track Curves: Running large O-gauge diesels like the Trainmaster on tight curves (such as O31) can strain internal wiring running down into the trucks due to side-to-side pivoting; wider radii (O42 or greater) are recommended to prevent wire fatigue or dislodging
