OTW 8-14-22 to 8-20-22

Here is a 1953 international brass O-B-O DIESEL. I think most modelers here have never seen this loco before. I'll post the photo of it with a brass stock car and brass tank cars.

I really enjoy seeing these examples from the early days of HO scale. The immediate postwar era saw a lot of small runs and items that were cataloged for only a year or two.

You are right - I've never seen that loco before. It is old, a little beat up, but an amazing relic from the past.
