Unknown Locomotive
Posted by RailEagle on Sunday, July 8, 2018 8:09 AM

I just brought a $40  N-scale locomotive at Model Train Classics in Eau Claire Wi. The locomotive is extremely detailed. But the only problem is I could not find out who made it. The locomotive did not come in a box and had no manufactor markings on the bottom. The only reason I am really concerned is in the case that I need customet service/ parts. The locomotive is an EMD SD40T-2 lettered for the St Louis Southwestern (Cotton Belt) No. 8374 in N Scale.

Thanks for any answers in advance.

Intermountain is the only company to make an N scale SD40T-2.

I tried to sell my two cents worth, but no one would give me a plug nickel for it.

I don't have a leg to stand on.
