Hello,
I have the Weaver 2-8-0 and other "small steamers" and feel that they fit my smallish layout (8' by 24') better than the Berkshire, Mountain, etc. Some of you may remember that within the past few years Weaver asked for recommendations for additions to their line. I suggested that they add more of the smallish die cast steamers but it appears that the market and/or the rising development costs has not been going in Weaver's favor. I hope that the situation changes because I have really enjoyed adding Weaver products to my roster.
