Jerry, I believe you mean Chicago Train Works. Great Trains was a different company (I Think). From what I’ve read both were 1:32 and used NWSL motor blocks so are often confused.

Hmm, very interesting.

I guess James Catlin is getting the items. He has a casting forum on Facebook. Knows his stuff.

Its not Great trains, its Chicago Train Works

If I remember correctly, these were fairly to scale, but not high on detail.
