Some nice stuff here! Love that Canadian Confederation unit. My contribution this week just came in the mail, a Lima electric engine, looks rather like the Russian Broken Nose diesels. Found it cheap on Ebay, and liked it, so bought it. Had a broken wire inside, and the large pancake motor needs to be disassembled and the brushes cleaned I think, it barely tries to move. Hopefullly nothing serious with it. At any rate, another Electric loco joins my juice fleet.

Just got this little gem on eBay for $12. Stickers are all nice and sharp and already have a
replacement truck for the tender. A little cleaning and TLC and I have another New One Thomas
Rogers 2-6-0 for my collection.

Are you sure it is Russian. From what I see it is a French loco. Joef, Lima and maybe marklin and Fleischmann made that model of Loco.

I thought it was Russian, but guess I was mistaken. Research says French, you're right.

Jerry. I"ve been looking for that loco with a colorful paint scheme. I never saw that all one color paint before. Maybe it is a freight loco.
