Here's a link to Crowleys web site. The tug in the picture is what I'm looking for. I did find however,a tug modelers web page,while looking for crowley's web site. Maybe the model site will help me,find what i'm looking for.

You can sometimes still find the Revell kit or the Lindberg kit. I've seen them both in stores within the last couple years.

Hello happy railroad guys,

I know that companys make HO scale tugboats,but where to find them. Kibri make one,as do the following. Walthers{if you can find one} Sheepscale products, but who else ? I'm looking for either plans or a kit in HO scale for a Crowley tractor tug, River tug. I bought a plastic tractor tug 1:200 scale {or something like that} ,thinking I could enlarge it to HO......wrong. I'm working on a 400 ton barge,made out of 1X6 pine lumber,scaled to 65' X 125' ,so far so good. I really need a tractor tug or river tug for this soon to be barge. Any help out there ?
