I have acquired an American chassis (HO) on which is mounted a shortened Hornby Cl 37 body ( about 25mm shorter). The chassis is Co-Co. All axles driven by horizontal cardans from a 7 pole conventional motor. The lower armature connection strip is to chassis (which is cast) and the upper to the bogie pickups which are sprung rigid strips. Cardans and wheel axles run in bronze square blocks. It has fantastic slow speed ability and huge towing power. Any offers on its manufacturer?
