Justin It is made by Lima, in Italy. It run good for a small diesel. The ATT is a different engine. The AHM was the same body but made in Yugoslavia not Italy. Tho AHM did use different manufactures. frank

Why is this in Tyco motive power if it's not a Tyco? Couldn't it be posted a LotW?

It's definitely not AHM or Model Power, or it would have a motor filling the entire cab. Since it's made by Lima, I'm guessing it's 4-wheel drive instead of the 2 on the Yugoslavian AHM?
I have yet to try a Lima, but they look like they're built better than the other cheaper "pancake" drives. Does that little thing run pretty well?
