Re: Silvine B&O 0-4-0t # 25 and the two other mystery 0-4-0t Locomotives. 2 are still Mystery locos of a unknown verified distributor of model trains.
Hi Dean, The CB&Q Aristo craft 0-4-0 was a much smaller locomotive and a switcher with a tender. The drive was completely different. The Aristo-Craft HO die cast steam locos were also made by the "New
Re: N1S 2-10-2
Thank you Chuck, my mistake! I posted photos and info on a N1s type loco in a N1s thread and typed in the name decapod. I am definitely not the sharpest tack in the box. At my age I'm just glad to be

Re: N1S 2-10-2
Minor matter but Decapod usually refers to a 2-10-0. The 2-10-2 is more often referred to as a Santa Fe type. I have heard that the Southern Pacific did at some time call the 2-10-2 a Decapod but as

A look at my Carry Santa-Fe type PRR N1sa? #1736 front pilot and a view of its long haul Penn-Line tender. You can see the Penn-line plate on the lower terder rear.

Re: N1S 2-10-2

Another Mystery 0-4-0t by New One Models of Japan
This one is just like Catford's B&O #62 and will interchange drives with both Silvine B&O #25 and Ken's B&O #62. It came boxed with no company name on the box. Here is B&O # 25 by Silvine.
