Nostalgia

My very first train set was a Lionel 027. It came with a Northern Pacific engine similar to this. So when I saw this Athearn Genesis HO on the clearance shelf at LCC, I thought long and hard about getting this engine for nostalgia purposes.

It comes with Tsunami Sound and it was half off.

Of course it doesn't match my road, but it does match the era and with an expansion coming up, I can use more engines.
