German BR-57 or G10 loco - where to get one..?I'm after a couple of BR-57 locos, but struggling to find any. I've heard Lima and Kato both make one, but so far can't find a supplier in the UK. |

|

http://www.nscaledivision.com/minitrix_models_in_stock.htm Gaugemaster stock Minitrix not sure if they have the BR57 though best to give them a ring. |

I'm thinking of heading down to Guagemaster on Monday. Might turn one up then... 
|
||
| upnick |
Go for it Al let us know how you go on
|

| Al |
Draw a blank on the BR-57, however I dod manage to pick up a couple of Roco V188 twin-diesels.
I'm thinking about paint one camoflauge colours and keeping the other one DRG green and just weathering it. |

Hi Al,
Shame about the BR57 there must be one out there just keep searching 
|

| poliss |
Found one in stock in the US, but it's expensive at $308.44.

Spent all my train money for this month on he V188's. Maybe I could talk someone into beying me a couple for christmas... 
|
||
| Al |
Got one....
£88 off e-bay.
|
||
| upnick |
Great news Al are you still looking for another as i thought two where your goal ?
|
||
| Al |
Two would be nice, but this one will do for now.
Recently picked up a 3rd BR01, a 2nd BR44 and a nice little BR24. Well and truely over spent this month.... lol |
||
| upnick |
As long as our enjoying it Al
|
||
| poliss |
I wonder if the BR01 was the one I was looking at? I gave up when the price went over 99p. 
The SNCF 231s are getting even more pricey. One was well over £300.00!! |
||
| Al |
A Trix one, when for just over £40? Could have been. Don't know about the SNCF 231s. The one I got was a none runner for under £20... |

BR-57 arrived this morning. It's a lovely little model.
|
||
| poliss |
Certainly looks good. Don't suppose she's good on tight curves with that many wheels. | ||
| upnick |
Excellent Al as Poliss said tight curves are out but it will make for more flowing track cant wait to see her going over Remagen
|
||
| Al |
I'd imagine Peco set track is out the question...
|
||
| upnick |
Yes would think so
