Hi guys
Wondering if some kind soul could help resolve the ID of the image below.
belonged to my dad,who i remember bought it from a collectors fayre in Margate,England way back in 1976,know its 1976 as its stilled wrapped in newspaper from that year .
Its only markings are 6200b The box says modelbahn and nothing else,though as it was bought second hand,it may have just been any old box that was handy at the time.

Way back when I wanted to have a model of a CNJ Hudson tanker, I tried to find one. All their were aviable was hand made brass models. And this is still true. No need to say how expensive they were. Having young children (3), a wife, and whatever to support I had to look elsewhere. A friend purchased a collection to sell and told me of some German locomotives that were part of the collection. He made me a deal I couldn't refuse and so I aquired two Lilliput 4-6-4t's. They had locomotive numbers 62003 and 62007. They bacame CNJ # 223 and # 225. They still are CNJ roster steam locos. Their also was a oddball. A, I was told Haruska 2-10-2 german style tanker. Here it is called a Santa Fe type. Now CNJ never had a Santa Fe type tanker but did this stop me ? NAAAAAAA! I have a fealing that these locomotives were as much or more expensive than the brass models. But Charlie came thro. I didn't do much but paint and letter them and enjoy them. The 2-10-2 became CNJ # 250.
