Weaver Lamoille Valley Railroad RS3 diesel locomotive

[Anonymous]

Hi folks,

Here is a long shot, but I thought I would give it a try. Does anyone know where I can get a Weaver Lamoille Valley Railroad RS3 diesel locomotive? The LVRC RS3s were produced in small quantity by Weaver several years ago, and many people have never even heard of the prototype railroad, let alone the small batch of LVRC RS3s that Weaver produced. (The prototype railroad ran across Vermont and was known through most of its existence as the St. Johnsbury & Lamoille County RR).

Norm's O Scale's (in Maine) website said that he had one LVRC RS3 in inventory (for $149), but I called him today and he said that this engine had been sold and he did not have another one in stock. Not sure if there is anyone out there that has the particular locomotive and wants to sell, if there are any other Weaver dealers up in Northern New England (or elsewhere) that I should try, or if I should attempt custom painting.

Anyhow, if anyone has an LVRC RS3 for sale, or knows of anyone currently carrying one, please email me. Thanks...
