Mine would (I quote her...) say, "Where's my speeding train?". She does that when she's aggravated...

steamgene,
idonotknowwhat"properlanguage"is, pleasehelpme!

Good luck on that one. Also, I think they re-state it because halfway through the article, people realize there is an article on how to make a gravel pit scene and read that. When they return to the Y3a article, they forget if the model "closely matches the URSA 2-8-8-2". Then everyone goes, "Oh yeah, I knew that." They all think this, "When did Proto 2000 Heritage start making steam locomotives?"

sp4449,
I have my guess on Rivarossi and Revel... I have absoutely no clue, I'm falling on whoever corrects me. ;D

Revell is an unpowered plastic kit that does not move...

GG,
It's likely the cheapest then... Go figure, you'll never see a moving thing from Revell...

Revell imported Arnold-Rapido's N-scale line way back in the day. And, yes those did move, so there have been moving things from Revell (at least in 1/160).

Didn't Revell make some freight cars to go along with the many structures it had when it was active in HO?  But yes, both the Big Boy and the NYC Class J Hudson were static models.
