Caterpillar equipment in HO scale
Posted by Anonymous on Wednesday, June 19, 2002 10:55 AM
Does anyone have a license to sell or distribute
these items? Am looking for earth moving and mining or anything else that is available. I was
informed of an HO scale train set. Anyone ever
seen that item??

I am sorry I can't be more specific but a company in Mequon Wisconsin has announced plans to import significant Caterpillar stuff in HO. They specialize in replicas that the original companies themselves use as presentation gifts and displays. This was announced in the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel in the spring but I have seen nothing since. Hopefully they will realize there is a market for scale modelers (Ertl did not seem to grasp the nature of the HO market)

I believe the company is Norscott. It is located on Port Washington Road just north of Donges Bay in Mequon, Wisconsin.
