These 1984 Southern 8458s were decorated in Mt Clemens but assembled in Mexico. The Mexico move was a failure and the locomotives did not function well. Production was quickly moved back to Mt. Clemens in time to make the 783 Hudson....and maybe the 8404 Turbine. I have always like the Lionel/AF HARR Southern 8458 and matching cars and I am proud to own the set.
