Hi Ken!
http://tycotrain.tripod.com/pemcorailwaysystem/id18.html http://reviews.ebay.com/IHC-RSO-AHM-and-Mehano-Steam-Locomotives-in-HO-scale_W0QQugidZ10000000006974508
Reminds me a little bit of the Mehano engines, think it runs like them. (seems to be the same) - Erich

Did these have pancake motors? Much of the Pemco stuff did. I'd buy the IHC Mountain instead.

That's what I did and I wasn't disappointed. The IHC Mountain locomotives are very good. They run good, they have very good pulling power, and they're just cool looking.

It looks, for all the world, like a C&O J2. Yeah, I think the Pennsylvania RR paint scheme is fantasy.

These are Mehano with can motors. Good running and good looking.
By the way!

Really? Not even a used one? That's crazy, to be honest.

It's a craziness that stems from American-made steamers being imports where he lives. What would be completely insane is if he can't even get ancient Triang tank engines for that kind of money.
