Seeking N-Scale and/or HO-Scale Milwaukee Little Joe

Hello Everyone--

I am seeking an N-Scale and/or HO-Scale Milwaukee Little Joe, brass or plastic. Any help is much appreciated.

Regards,

Steve Williams

I have only noticed HO brass (NWSL, Tenshodo) that comes up on eBay. The quality of those varies on the age. Older units-70's vintage, are reported to growl and have electrical pick ups in need of work. Newer units tend to run better and have the ability to manually switch between the rail and pantographs for power.

Prices range between $300 and $600 when the bidding is done. $300 is older unpainted, newer with quality paint jobs get up in price pretty quick.

AFAIK-

There has never been a plastic Little Joe in HO or N. The N scale Overland runs were sold out a while ago. So those will probably be scarce for a while.

I bought my N scale Joe on pre order and waited over 3 years to get it. I got the E-79 and am very happy with it. It sits on its own track in my display case along with some ribside 40 & 50ft boxcars and a ribside caboose. It is such a prize possesion that I very rarely run it as it is more of a show piece than anything.
