Anyone deal with Tiger Valley Models before ? Are they still in business ? Is the T6 still available for purchase ?
Better question. How hard would it be to kit bash a few Atlas shells to get a reasonable T6 ? Has anyone made a T6 ? If so please share your creation with our forum.
Thank you.

Tiger Models, I was told, did the T-6 in HO. I have never seen one and I don't think they are still in business.
The only other model I have seen produced in HO were brass imports a very long time ago by Alco Models. They show up on feebay semi frequently. Many had cracked nylon gears. Probably be able to use an Atlas S type switcher mechanism for a much better running engine.
That's one engine we need in the hobby that gets continuously ignored because of the small number produced for just 2 railroads originally.

The website's gone, but I'm guessing Tiger Valley will be around as long as the owner's alive. You can always give him a call and find out! https://www.manta.com/c/mmgp2gw/tiger-valley-model
