Information please on a Rowa N gauge 2-8-8-2
Posted by ndbprr on Monday, November 6, 2017 5:28 PM

Was given a box of N gauge trains by a customer.  Beside a Penn Central cannon ball in a postage stamp box is a Rowa 2-8-8-2 that if not NIB it is pretty close to that in its original plastic box. Pretty nice looking engine. Assume this runs on 12 volts dc to test.  Any information appreciated.  I am in HO and not familiar with the history or value of this engine.  Thank you

Rowa and Postage Stamp brands are from the 1970s and aren't very much in demand now a days. My best advice to you is to try and sale them on ebay. Good luck...

Objection, your honor! Röwa/Bemo 2-8-8-2´s were way ahead their competitors in terms of detail and running performance and still are a boost to each layout.
