Hi All,

Can anyone give me an idea of who made this? It is all plastic, even the wheels. It says made in Yugoslavia on the bottom. The box has no markings but the numbers on the end.

Thanks
Mike

This engine is listed here in the 1979 AHM Catalog.

Although the Amtrak is not listed here it seems AHM labeled their dummy's with D. The reason I posted the AHM 1979 picture was to show that AHM did make a fp-45 in the Amtrak roundname.

just adding a little more to the confusion. D is the fourth letter in the alphabet.....lol

Hello,

don´t forget, that Mehano is still alive and still making the FP45:

http://www.mehano.si/?PID=21&CID=39&ID=322

By the way, Mehano took over some of the old Pemco moulds (GG1, SD35, Mountain....) and improved them. Just browse the site a bit!
