    No
    The side rods on the pig are attached to the all 6 wheels like on the Marklin 8804 0-6-0 Diesel switcher
    The side rods on the BR89 are only attached to the rear wheel sets

    Ok, I thought that was a homemade contraption until I saw your post. I've got several fantasy locomotives on my layout, but I don't know if I could do a pig (if I was doing Z-scale, which I might someday). Is there a story behind it? It seems like an awfully strange thing to come out with.

    Here I was looking for a lighthouse, and I find the Germans didn't quite understand what a "hogger" is.

    I hope they never do a model of a Harley Davidson.

    Hey Pig Gap, how about a bunch of meat reefers?
    Maybe a Illinois Central boxcar?

    I have started to look for a CB&Q livestock car that I can put some pigs into. I wonder if I can put a HO (Horribly Oversized) pig into one.
