And then there’s this guy, which may be my most intriguing- I was going to post it in my “help with Bing cast iron shell” thread:

2B123AEB-BF54-49AC-91E6-52616026F064055390FA-7B2D-4EF4-9A84-707C9B86E8B7DA73D2D6-870C-43E6-8AA7-B6BDE5C7181A7F0317AE-0DBC-460E-BA8E-DE67C3667D89

Simply marked Germany. Electric motor(obviously not working). The shells of the loco and tender as well as the remaining wheels on the loco are in nice shape. The thing is- it’s just a hair too small for o gauge and definitely doesn’t fit on s-gauge. I know Bub had a misguided S-gauge endeavor- but the wheelbase wouldn’t align with that. I also know that some German manufacturers in the Prewar days manufactured a smaller o gauge. @Arne and @FRENCHTRAINS - I was gonna post this to you guys anyway, ideas? I ran into a seller at a train meet recently who had a similar one and he gave me his contact info telling me to reach out. 

Steve,

unmarked but not unknown.  Here a similar loco with train, marked with FANDOR.
