A rare (and local) O gauge manufacturer

[@naxshack]

Wow the detail on that is amazing! Beautiful paint and looks like it runs very smooth! Sounds like a pretty interesting drive line in it too!

[@UncleSalty-nz5uk]

Thanks Brian. It's amazing how many choices of manufacturers we used to have in O gauge. I miss those days! I've never owned anything with proto3, so looking forward to that. Will probably change my mind on modern stuff.

[@naxshack]

Definitely Matt! There used to be many choices! The modern stuff has a lot of bells and whistles (literally), but in the end it really needs to run nicely in order to enjoy! Overall I haven’t had any complaints with the modern stuff, but I’ve also had some PS1 models that have run beautifully and sounded great as-is. Unfortunately I’m just not set up for conventional anymore so any conventional models I get have to get upgraded.

Wow! That sure is a nice looking model Matt! Love thepaint scheme on it! 👍

[@UncleSalty-nz5uk]

@TwistedMacGyversTrains Red Caboose was more prevalent in HO scale. This was only o gauge offering. I believe Atlas ended up with the tooling and parts.

Do these sell for cheap? I will have a look

@TwistedMacGyversTrains They are quite fragile, so be aware of that. Still nice locomotives though. 4 pickup rollers as well

[@TwistedMacGyversTrains]

Thanks Matt! I just picked up a new set and will show it off once it arrives. 👍😆😎

That's a really nice locomotive Matt. I've heard of Red Caboose, but never seen one. BTW I just shipped your Niagra tender so it should be back by Monday. I'll email you the tracking number for it. I hope it brings great enjoyment and helps honor your Dad's love for the Niagra locomotives.

Thank you so much! I really appreciate it!

Neat engine Matt. Never heard of Red Caboose.

[@UncleSalty-nz5uk]

Fairly obscure and not a popular drive mechanism for o gauge at the time.
