Fatman posted:The second one was bought locally here in Australia and the seller had absolutely no idea what it was and didnt even attempt to hint a name on the listing ... I am pretty sure its an early electric outline Bing , which would be a stupidly rare thing to find natively here in Australia .
I am not sure but perhaps it has been re-motored as looking at the photos the axles do not line up properly with the body, but I would think it pretty rare to have an early locomotive here ( that is not via a collector) let alone another mech that would fit it ?
Sorry unfornately 0 points :-). This is not Bing. The set was made by Kraus-Fandor in the late 20s. The loco has the No 1025, the coach is No. 1210 and the combine is No. 1211.
The loco is very similar to Bing, both was made in the same iron foundry.
