New HO Scale Locomotives

Precision Scale has announced that they will be offering an HO scale model of the Lincoln Funeral train. The three piece set includes the Nashville 4-4-0, the presidential car and an officers car. These look like finely detailed models. They are priced at $2375 for the set.  There are many more photos of the models at this link. PSC is taking reservations now.


Combine this offering with the recent announcement of the Engine Haupt 4-4-0 by Eight Wheeler models, a Swedish model railroad manufacturer, and the outlook for fine HO scale ACW era locomotives is improving.

Test view of the Eight Wheeler Models tender for Haupt.
