3rd Rail GP7 or GP9 - 3R Only | O Gauge Railroading On Line Forum

If anyone has a 3rd Rail GP7 or GP9 from the recent production in 3-rail that they don’t want because of a paint or detail error in the roads listed below, I’ll buy it. If you have a pair with different numbers but same road name, even better. The unit(s) have to be otherwise undamaged and work properly.

GP7:
Pennsylvania
Chesapeake & Ohio
Erie Lackawanna
Lackawanna
Reading
Erie
Denver & Rio Grande Western

GP9:
Pennsylvania
Chesapeake & Ohio
Chessie System
New Haven
Lehigh Valley
Denver & Rio Grande Western

Why not contact Scott and see if he has any coming back ? That way you get a warranty.

Because I’m looking to save him the hassle of dealing with returns, and I’m positive he’d help out if there were issues. Plus I’m pretty good at fixing things if he wouldn’t.
