Live Steam GP60
Posted by Anonymous on Friday, March 2, 2007 3:47 PM

Is anyone selling a battery operated live steam GP60? I found one on MDM Locomotive Works for 12,412. Does anyone have one of those for a much smaller amount, maybe around 5,000?

What is a live steam GP60? Do you have a picture of it?

This is what I mean. A live diesel locomotive.

I believe ridingrailkits only sells 1" gauge trains. The one in the photo is a 1.5" gauge train. I would try discoverlivesteam.com. There you will find classified ads as well as ads from manufacturers.

Hope this helps

I believe the locos in the picture are by Railsystems. I have a link somewhere, it should come up on google.

Cannonball also makes a variety of small electric switchers. Carr's Locomotives will also do custom orders. Very nice, solid locos, pricey though. On the flip side, you get exactly what you want.

livesteaming.com has links to manufacturers all over the world as well as lots of other cool stuff.
