N / 'USA' tank engine
May 10, 2008, 04:56:40 PM
I am currently building a layout that is set around a fictional preserved railway in England, and as such am using models of engines that are currently preserved - both working and static. One engine I would like to own, if one is available, is of a 'USA' tank engine. Used by the Southern Railway to shunt wagons and materials around Southampton docks prior to the D-Day landings, a number remained in England while others went to France following the landings. Of those that remained, six are currently preserved; the most colourful being at Keighley http://www.kwvr.co.uk/ Would be grateful if anyone knows if a model of this engine is available, either rtr or kit. Regards, Chris.
