During this rainy day labor day weekend in Georgia I found out about an upcoming USRA 0-6-0 being offered by Life-Like. As a Pennsy fan I am happy about this as Pennsy had a few of them B-28s. They are due out in April. Here is the listing: Proto Heritage Series NEW: 0-6-0 Steam Switcher Liefertermin ca. April 2002 / scheduled for April 2002: 30211 0-6-0 Atlantic Coast Line black #1136 US-$ 225,00 30212 0-6-0 Atlantic Coast Line black #1142 US-$ 225,00 30214 0-6-0 Chicago & North Western black, white lettering #2603 US-$ 225,00 30215 0-6-0 Chicago & North Western black, white lettering #2624 US-$ 225,00 / (Image) 30216 0-6-0 Gulf Mobile & Ohio black #42 US-$ 225,00 30217 0-6-0 Gulf Mobile & Ohio black #45 US-$ 225,00 30219 0-6-0 Maine Central black #175 US-$ 225,00 30220 0-6-0 Maine Central black #176 US-$ 225,00 30221 0-6-0 Pennsylvania black, gold lettering #7300 US-$ 225,00 30222 0-6-0 Pennsylvania black, gold lettering #7341 US-$ 225,00 / (Image) 30223 0-6-0 Rock Island black #279 US-$ 225,00 30224 0-6-0 Rock Island black #280 US-$ 225,00 30225 0-6-0 undecorated US-$ 225,00 This can be found at the following web site; http://home.t-online.de/home/all-american-trains/newllho.htm Also, the image for the Pennsy one is not correct, it shows a B-6sb, not a B-28. The B-6sb is a purely Pennsy animal, unlike the USRA 0-6-0. Eric
Any word as to what the prototype for the model is? The line I'm modeling used a lot of 0-6-0s, but it wasn't listed on the website. I'm very interested to know because it might be an easy kitbash project.
