Reply to "Central Locomotive Works (CLW) + List of O-Scale Diesel Models Kits they manufactured?"

Hello all ... Bob Smith / Central Locomotive Works ....  involved with many many locomotive projects ... here are a few  

The EMD E7 

The cast PA's ... the later ones are all different ...( not as nice in my opinion) 

The Berkshire ...which was a Lenoir / Hines piece...which Hines failed to pay Adam and Son for ...so it went to Bob Smith ...

You like the GMC GM switcher ???  that was Bob's also ..a few of the cast brass versions are out there ..not many before the project went to GMC 

As Bob mentioned ...Bob Smith had the Saginaw tooling for a while ..but only produced the H10... why or why not the E6 ????

O scale was a small pond to swim in and all the fishes know each other ....

It would be great to see a definitive work on Bob Smith and his Central Locomotive Works .

Cheers Carey
