Wasn't it developed in response to the ALCO RS-1 or 2?

I stand corrected, I thought it was Russia, hummm...Cjcrescent said:Hate to disappoint you Josh. They're from Germany. As a result some people called them Kraut-Machines!
I just looked on e-bay. Wow, there are some very pricey ones out there in the e-bay stores. I just wanted to say that they couldn't give these things away in the hobby stores for $39.99. I think I got mine for $19. I would really not recommend paying the $69 that I see some of these people asking, they are NOT rare and definitely not worth that much.pappywolf said:Hey, I found a few of them on ebay. thanks all
pappywolf said:Yea, I got mine for $19.00 too. Thats not bad. Hey I bought a Riverossi Big Boy #4005, 1970 or 71. It has a broken cow catcher on it. Do they make a repair kit or some place to get spare parts ? Thanks all
