{S-Scale List} USRA Locos

Ironically I just shipped a USRA Mike only to receive a USRA Pacific the next day. I have not worked on a Pacific until now. Both are Overland locos but I was VERY surprised to see that both were not made by Ajin. The Pacific is made by MS models. I don't know the time span between their release.

Bill: Not sure where you get your info, but Overland's USRA Lt. Mike and USRA 0-8-0 were both built by Ajin in 1985 and 1986 respectively. The OMI USRA Pacific came form M.S. Models in 1989 - 1990. M.S. also did several Overland Sn3 locomotives as well as the RDG 2-8-0 Camelback in standard

Hi Peter; This appears to be very useful (I have to assume, I'm not Neo-ed yet. Does that make me Paleo?) In any case, may we make this part of a FAQ for the list? I can see that being handy for a while. Best regards; Pieter Roos Sent from my iPhone On Sep 29, 2013, at 9:16 AM, Peter

As an owner/moderator of a Yahoo group all you have to do is click on the photo in the header. My groups use to have a guy with hands on a laptop, no more. You can't change the photo to one that is in one of the groups albums but you can upload a new photo from your computer. This of course can

Peter, Three of my Yahoo Groups have been able to set up the groups home page photo, so it can be done. I agree with you: there are some benefits to the new interface. The problem is how they went about springing it on us, and the slow progress that NEO is making in working the bugs out,

i can certainly confirm the wisdom of packing the pilot separately for shipping: the OVL RDG I-8 a friend bought for me from the Maurer auction of the Bortz collection had the pilot damaged severely posting it from New Jersey to Minnesota, despite careful packing and lots of styrofoam pellets.

I have no plans on selling the drivers. The best option would have been to buy the 51 drivers from Dan at River Raisin when he imported the USRA 0-6-0's. Any one that has the REX Mogul or the Suburban, which use 57 inch drivers, your best option right now would be to order 57 in drivers from

I can say this only theoretically, as I am waiting until after I get relocated to start one of Bill Wade's MaPa 2-8-0 kits, but from a preliminary read of the instruction sheets, a quartering jig is included, so if you are close to someone who owns a kit, you could borrow one from him. A lot
