    O scale Mallet Bash

    I know how you feel, been there, done that. I keep coming back to O scale, 2 rail, you just can't beat it. Now I'm retired I'm having a ball with it, you only live once, so blow the expence.

    O scale Mallet Bash

    Hi Bill, Keep an eye on ebay, you might get lucky. These old Rivarossi locos build into nice models with a bit of work. They run surprisingly well, smooth and quiet. Cheers, Joe.

    Forney Bash To Saddle Tank

    Hi Tom :wave: Yeah, I've seen Geoff's work on line and in the model press. Very nice work indeed. :thumb::thumb::thumb: I would say Layouts are smaller and don't seem to last as long as the U.S. Layouts. Variety is the spice of life sign1 :wave::wave: Joe.
