LGB Switcher Chassis
Posted by Benjamin Maggi on Friday, December 28, 2007 6:17 PM

I am looking to purchase an LGB diesel switcher chassis for a kitbashing project in my head. I am interested in the 3-axle version with the counterweights on the outside and linked together with a drawbar. LGB has made several models using this chassis, including engines decorated for the Sante Fe (#23620), and "Stars and Stripes" (#21625). Does anybody know if this chassis is available seperately, or has anyone seen one in a shop for sale? I care not about the body itself, as I plan to build a completely new body on the chassis.

Thanks.

Sorry Ive only seen these NIB complete, I think you'd have to bite the big $ for it.

   Have fun with your trains
