I think the Missouri Locomotive Company had a live steamer that wasn't too much more than that. Ralph

Must be too many episodes of Thomas and Friends…Idonknow, but I keep coming back to a desire to do this instead of my American Outline Logging/Freight…didn’t help when we purchased the latest Thomas DVD and the entire thing was about the “little engines”…where would one purchase this type of loco in “G” here in the States?

Hey Nelson, Europa is full of narrow gauge trains, in Switzerland we have a lot of active narrow gauge trains in the mountains, and if you search a bit more you find even some private owned ones. My all time favorite one is " Schinznacher Baumschule" (short SCHBB) LGB produced even one of their engines, to bad i could just take a few pics of that engine while in the shed and partially covered. here the link to this website http://www.schbb.ch/ think global and regards Pius IF you like to learn about all the swiss narrow gauge here a link:http://www.nm-bahnen.ch/Bahnlinks.htm http://johnlawontherails.fotopic.net/p47458642.html http://www.schmalspur-europa.at/schmalsp_31.htm here a few pics out of my collection

You got that right. When another locomotive shows up at my house, I’m telling my wife it is your fault.

Ralph,

Do you expect us to believe that she would believe you?? :smiley: :stuck_out_tongue: :wink:

I suppose you are right. I unsuccessfully tried to blame all the other packages showing up on my brother!
