==Description== The '''KdNS Type Dn Class H2''', or simply '''Class H2''' is an 0-8-0 tender engine. The H2 currently is tied with the [[H class|Class H]] for the most coupled driving wheels of any loco in the game at 8 drivers. It is essentially the tender engine variant of the Class H and is currently the most expensive locomotive in the game. Like the Class H, the Class H2 is intended to be a heavy eight-coupled steam locomotive used for hauling heavy trains. The H2 is nearly twice as fast as the Class H and boasts a higher tractive effort, though its larger drivers and lighter weight mean it is much more prone to wheelslip. The Class H2 often finds itself unable to fully use its full tractive effort without slipping which limits the weight it can pull significantly. Though the H2 cannot pull as heavy trains as the Class H, the H2's top speed makes up for it. The Class H2 is a highly capable endgame engine, and is competitive with locomotives such as the [[Class K2]] and [[Class J2]]. Those with a lot of money to throw around will find this engine quite enjoyable to operate.
