    I'm just starting out in model railroading with my grandson who is 6 yrs old. We have choosen to go with the HO scale diesels. He is into the military trains and accy. I myself am trying to go with the theme of the railroad that ran through my home town when I was growing up. The rail road at the time was Tuscola Saginaw Bay RR. I have found some rolling stock of TSB but am trying to find the Engines for TSB. Any info as to where I could purchase them, would be appericated.

    Welcome from the home of Super Bowl XLVI

    I can hardly wait to be able to share model railroads with my grandsons. The oldest is only 5 months, so there's some time to wait. You may have a real tough time finding locomotives for the TSB that aren't custom-painted. It would probably be such a low-run item (read: low-profit) that it's unlikely any of the mainstream manufacturers ever made one. I could be wrong, though. It wouldn't be the first time!
