Last week, I got a Lindsay ALCO FA-2 kit NEW IN THE BOX!! I've already got it built and finished, and put up a review for those who are less familiar with Lindsay.

I really do like these old Lindsay products! They had some pretty nice and interesting stuff way back when.

Very good review, as always for you.

About Lindsay products. They sold kits for their Stubby B drive industrial Diesel. This was all die cast white metal. They made kits for Alco FA-1 and 2 's. They also made a B unit for the FA diesel. These also were white metal castings. The made a kit for a Alco PA1 which I have two that I rebuilt and painted for the PRR in their Brunswick green with a single stripe. I kitbashed the PRR Radio telephone antenna on each of the two. I have a box of parts for two each of FA1 and FB1 diesels which will make 4 locomotives.
here are some photos.
If someone wants to make some FA's or a PA from the parts PM me.
