Even the US stuff I have found photos of dead ringers (even that goofy little TOYTRAIN Atlas engine). I wouldnt go so far as to say they were exact scale replicas but it was clear that LGB was using someones photos or plans of real engines to base their models on. Which ones besides the obvious "Fortuna Flyer" are not reality based? [:D]

QUOTE: Originally posted by trainmaster1989 some of the shorty cars are modeled after jackson sharp and sierra type cars and seem way to short. It's possible that they were modeled after european cars and then changed a lot. the european ones look good. If I were to take a couple, cut off one of the ends on each one, and put the longest parts together would it look ok? Scott
Have fun with your trains

No, sellers will continue to pay their current rate. When the new pricing tiers go into effect on August 6, 2004, sellers may become eligible for a lower rate. Eligibility and price tier will be determined at the beginning of every month based on the seller's received volume for the previous calendar month. Eligible sellers will need to apply before receiving lower rates. Sellers can view their monthly volume in their Monthly Account Statements located on the My Account page under the History tab.
