Runs nice, not a clue as to make, manufacture, or vintage. Brought to Club by Tinplate Henry.

That is a neat Euro engine for O gauge. Other than G, I rarely see any large-scale European trains at my shop. But here's a reference to some O gauge makers in Europe, past and present, that I just ran across, being interested after reading this post -

I recognize a few familiar names, some I didn't know were into O gauge though, but most are totally "foreign" to me. Will be interesting to check on some of these makers.

Hey man. Do you have a couple of more photo's of this locomotive? As I may be able to identify it for you as I am an avid O gauge collector by all manufacturers. Looks very cool from what I can see in the photographs.

Thanks Railhead, thanks Gremlin. Railhead, no I only have these two shots. Henry is also an avid O collector. His oldest piece is a pre WWI three railer, and it runs nice!
I hope that you post some images of your collection. I'd enjoy seeing that.

Hi Ricky. These photos were from some years ago. That's one I never heard of, "Karl Bub."
