The USATC S160 2-8-0s

Post by TobyB »

On a visit last week 2 the Grosmont sheds, saw an engine resembling the above. Does any of our bretheren accross the pond have any recomendations as to the best HO model to purchase?

The only model I'm aware of is a British kit - from DJH I think. HO scale and British!

Lots were made and they worked in many countries, so you'd expect it to be a popular model. I suspect divided scale standards are a problem. I've looked for one in N, and would buy it if someone was to make one...
