Hey all,
I'm finally getting back into this glorious hobby after a 10 year break. I have pretty much lost all of my rolling stock and locomotives, very little still survives. So I'm looking to 'restart' so to speak.
I'm going to be modeling in N scale, but I know there is more HO scale loco's available in different 'styles', and there is a couple of locos I want for display purposes because they mean SO much to my childhood and my identity. These are:
CNR 4-8-2 Light Mountain '6060' Bullet Nosed Betty (would actually take any Light Mountain that shares the '6060's bullet nosed. I can repaint if I have too)
CP 4-8-4 Royal Hudson (once again, will take any Hudson that shares the same look as the Royal)
These two locos are ones that I would love to have, especially if I can find them in N Scale (which is why I'll be reposting this in the N scale forum as well), but would love the HO's as well for display.
I know there was a Presidents Choice version of the '6060' but I've been having a hell of a time finding one. Is there any other known builder of these models?
