N Scale Mexican road name cars and locomotives

[Anonymous]

Hi there,

Anyone know where you can get your hands on N Scale Mexican road name model rr equipment? I know there have been a few Micro Trains & Roundhouse releases in the past. Is the market big enough in Mexico that there are dealers/distributors commissioning special runs, similar to the Canadian market?

Model railroading exists down here, but it's not a big market by any stretch of the imagination. And N scale is only a small part of whatever market exists.

I've heard of a little special run (more likely custom work by someone) stuff down here, but it was in HO and not in N.

Modeling NdeM in N scale is pretty much a 'paint it yourself' proposition.

If you find something, let me know.

Regards

Ed

down here the lhs actually if requewsted will paint any locomotive in NdeM scheme, for a healthy price anywhere from 80 bucks us to 150 bucks us, generally speaking they'll only paint locos and then the ones that actually existed in mexico and in mainly HO
