Yes. Part of the first group of brass C-16's (D&RGW 278) were gauged to
Sn42.  I believe it was only about 25 of them, with the remainder gauged to
Sn3.  I believe this was in the late '60's.  After that, all the PFM/Tomalco
engines were Sn3 only.

I didn't know about Sn3 when the first group was out, but I bought one of
the second group of C-16's (#223) around 1976.  Luckily, I was out of
college, but not married yet, so I could afford my first brass engine.

I still have several locomotives with converted HO mechanisms and some cars
that started out as HO from my earlier days in Sn3.

And weren't some of Tomalco's early ng steam engines built to run on HO 
track? Chuck Porter
