I have a good amount of it in 009. <br /><br />If I want to go O gauge (actually 1:43 as you noted), I will have to kit bash or scratch build a 2-6-2. <br /><br />Those French Pershing cars are very expensive at 60 Euro per car. But they do look nice.Berniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14041125155303909803noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7108382665458119460.post-43858679713495680882016-01-02T14:58:49.861-05:002016-01-02T14:58:49.861-05:00That French site is intriguing.

The French did narrow-gauge with a certain je ne sais quoi.<br />Assuming your scale is 1:43, rather than 1:48 (the Sayer kit appears to be 7mm - 1ft/1:43) then there was a kit made for a Baldwin 4-6-0 by Wrightlines. It's out of production now but ebay might be a source. Admittedly, I think the 4-6-0 was mainly used on the British front but there was a degree of make-do-and-mend and a serviceable loco was a serviceable loco. Bachmann have also promised a rtr version of the 4-6-0 in OO9 for some time in 2016.Colinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04690742272982191327noreply@blogger.com
