Hi Guys. I figured I would start this week. I know romcat likes small switchers. Here is a hard one to find. I beleive it is a engine made by Ken Kidder around the 1950s. Imported Japanese Brass. I found it many years ago in pieces in the bottom of a box of engines. I stripped off the paint and put it back together. Runs petty good.

Hey Guys, and thanks Vintageho-er!
The Only "OO" scaler in my collection. a Lima GWR Class 08 "Shunter" as the Brits call `em.
I'm going to use the shell on a Kitbash project of some kind as the running grear is Toast!
These little Loco's are often referred to as "Critters"
Btw: VintageHo. that may also be a "Gem" model? Also I'm broke but if you were interested in selling let me know?

Here's one I found in pieces.
The locomotive chassis is a modified Life/Like dockside chassis.
The tender chassis is from an AHM MDT switcher. The rest is brass.
I don't know if the boiler and tender was a kit, a re powered brass import or a total scratch-build.
