hello i need a bigger loco because my stock is growing so something bigger needed prefrebly american style steam or deisel prefreble within £100-150
 
I would keep watching ebay - you should be able to get a good secondhand Aristo or USAT loco withing your price range. I've bought four at under £150 this year. :D
 
Couple of second hand locos at GRS on their Nov 1st newsletter.


Locomotives Aristocraft A22102 U25B Chessie System £119.00
Locomotives Aristocraft A22100 Series U25B Conrail #2627 £119.00

Hmmm. Santa Fe warbonnet cow and calf set. As the vendor notes, no longer in production, but the missing handrails are a bit of a bummer. USA Trains are VERY good at supplying spares, and I can tell you from my own experience that the handrails are about $15.00 a set, plus you'll need the hoses [two sets] and MU connectors [two sets] another $10 or so. Figure on around $50 including shipping for the bits to make it right.

BTW - this is NOT a road engine, but a switcher set - shunter in British train parlance - but then Rule 8 applies. :D

I'm still after any SOO Line stock and locomotives, both USAT and Aristo have made them over the years..... :thumbup:

[still on the look out if anybody has something thats powerful and is nice please pm me!!!!
im in dire need
 
dont know what your needs are or era

but without, imho, a doubt,

the LGB Genesis locos are superb and really cheap right now-$200!! 

smooth powerful, massive and impressive, wonderful interior lighted controls-

-it is likely we will never see them again produced and certainly not of the current quality

but not a freight loco
