Not  a fancy word but the correct classification  ;)
OK How 'bout this.

It's a NYNH&H Hudson, class I-5 (which I don't understand since the I-1 to I-4 were Pacifics)

Anyway, BLI is producing them in HO for this summer.
Overview
In 1937, New Haven received ten 4-6-4 locomotives built by Baldwin. These were the last steam power the road would purchase and they were certainly the most beautiful. They featured streamlined boilers that were gloss black with stainless steel stripes and trim (aluminum paint on the tenders.) They were powered by large 80" Boxpox drivers that were ideal for the speedy Shoreline passenger trains that serviced New Haven and Boston. Many of these routes originated in, or continued to, New York via the New Haven's electrified western end. These locomotives hauled some of the most recognizable extra fare trains in railroading including the Merchants Limited, Senator and Yankee Clipper.

Broadway Limited is building the most accurate, smooth-running, sound-equipped, brass-hybrid HO New Haven I-5 Hudson ever.

Even though it isn't GN and much more likely to be REA.
