B&M Alco C-628 on Ebay?
Posted by Cannoli on Friday, October 13, 2006 9:59 AM

There is an HO B&M Alco C-628 posted on Ebay today. To my knowledge the B&M never owned any of these units. It does have a very toy train like appearance (IE Tyco, AHM). I'm not going to be adding it to my fleet, I'll stick with my RS3's and Geeps but was just curious who did manufacture this model and when? Anyone have any thoughts?

Here's the Ebay link: http://cgi.ebay.com/B-M-Boston-Maine-Alco-C-628-12-wheel-diesel-mint-HO_W0QQitemZ270038034519QQihZ017QQcategoryZ484QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem

  You are right - B&M did not roster the C628!  This is just a cheap 'train set' engine.
