prrjim posted:I just did a search on "Brass Trains" website. Max Grey, US Hobbies, and Precision Scale have all done Santa Fe 2-10-4 models. Precision was just in 2012 and there are a bunch for sale on the site. There is just probably no market for another model of this locomotive right now or the near future.
Hi PRRJIM!
While you are correct that various ATSF 2-10-4's have been done... the 5001 class has never been done.
Interesting note on the Precision scale engines... I donated my own Hallmark Samhongsa 5001 class #5003 to do the prototypying for the "proposed" models... this was along with many hours of research going through Harrisburg,PA arrchives for Baldwin etc...
Needless to say, the engines never got produced!
