Non-Scale F3s, Sub 12 in ?

[Andrew Falconer]

RK is short for Mike's Train House RailKing Line. The RailKing Line started out as a smaller than O Scale or Close to S Scale Line. Over the past 5 year the RailKing Line of the Sub-Scale equipment has been shifted into the Rugged Rails Line.

www.mth-railking.com is the place to find all the information.

Beeps are made by RMT - Ready Made Toys

Thanks. I have to plead ignorant and confess I'm not positive I'm familiar with 'RK' brand or 'The Company That Makes 'Beeps''...

RK as in RailKing by MTH I'm guessing?

But the Beeps Company reference has my puzzled...

The company that makes "beeps" are going to make "beefs", which are radically shrunk, 4-wheel engines based on F-3s.  If they run like the beeps, they should be great.  The colors include Pennsy, B&O, and a third which I cannot remember right now.

Original RK F-3's were significantly shorter than the traditional/scale units.

I'm curious if anybody (Lionel, KLine, MTH...) has made any non-scale F3s that were more akin to a sub 12 inch Lionel postwar ALCO in dimension than the longer 13 inch postwar F3s or modern scale 'correct' F3s? E.g. an F3 A unit more or less in the 11-12 inch range?

Thanks,
