Title: Little Yarra 2-4-0 tender loco.
Post by: Murray on February 29, 2024, 02:40:03 AM
I put this on the 'wish list" thread a while ago, and no doubt it's been said before, but I want to see Bachmann bring out a 2-4-0 tender locomotive, based on the Little Yarra locomotive that Baldwin built in 1912 for the Powelltown tramway in Australia.

It's pretty much a 2-4-4 Forney cut off and a 6 wheel tender added. Must be do-able?

I bring it up again, because a company here in Australia is in the production stage of a release of a brass and white metal kit of that very locomotive. It will be very desirable and very expensive! I expressed my interest  :D

If Bachmann genuinely intend to continue to support 0N30 with RTR locomotives, they might do very well to consider it.

just a thought?  ;D
