Wayne's Review

Ghastly!
causing great horror or fear; frightful or macabre.
"I am overcome with horror at the ghastly spectacle."

Looking at the latest Lionel catalog has me thinking we have indeed returned to the Kughn era of high-priced locomotives overwhelmingly targeting the collector market.

And yes, that is ghastly.

Might derail a lot on switches with long ridiged wheelbase.

Ouch! What's the price for this ghastly 2-10-4?

I'm guessing most buyers will stick it under a display case and not run it. I'm thinking v8vega is probably right about its running characteristics.
