The one main manufacturer of OOO scale trains was Lone Star. This was a British company. The trains they made, which were of both British and North American prototypes, were manily free-wheeling and had no motors (but still had track). There were some, however, some that were electric, called "Treble-O-Lectric". The non-powered ones are much easier to find. There was a complete line of track, switches and accessories. Many of the trains are very simmilar to Tri-ang. They are valuable collectors items now and sell quite high on ebay. Unfortunately, the only Lone Star piece I own right now is a KCS caboose with the roof missing that I found at a flea market. Anyway, I did a search and came up with this very excellent site that will tell you just about anything you could ever want to know about Lone Star OOO. <br />http://members.aol.com/dgosha/TrebleO.html
