Have a train that I’m looking for purchase that’s marked Kaydee USA. I was told this by a seller.
This is a Kaydee-Athearn train? Could this be correct? Not familiar with the make.
Thanks

We would have to see the listing to make a determination. Kadee does make their own line of HO cars but they are much more detailed than Athearn with separate grab irons and brake detail.
Or if it's a typo KayBee toys had a couple of promotional boxcars I think one was made by Kader industries what we call Bachmann here and one by Mantua.

I had to Google up your M1, from your wish list, Bamos. That
is a really fun looking switcher, and I rode behind a narrow
gauge version- I think it was a Plymouth actually, in Maine
years ago.
I know Top Train has frequently posted some vintage
4 wheel switchers over the years, really drool worthy,
to quote a Tyco ad. I rather doubt he is selling,
however. I would trade a kidney for some of the
vintage pieces he has posted over the years!

If I was to start over, I'd exclusively use Kadee cars.  I had
one, paid an arm and leg for it, about $35, but I was
amazed at the tracking and smooth rolling action of
the car.  Then it got melted in the trunk of my car.
Back to Tyco.
