Ohhhh, lovely...are those chrome details on the Green Burlington Northern's trucks actually part of the trucks or just a cover?

Is the Erie Steamer an oil burner or some other form of fuel besides coal? I love that Tender.

The trucks are chrome/silver Super, they are not covers, its quite a nice looking livery isn't it Smile

I'm not sure about the steamer to be honest, I just saw it, liked it and it was a good price so I nabbed it. But looking at the tender it looks like an oil tank to me so I expect its oil fired. It is cool thought, the best part is that train not only has a working headlight, but also a smoke generator built in Big Grin Big Grin

I should add ALL of them have working lights Big Grin

I can't find anything on that steamer. Who made the model? Maybe they have a bit more info on it or at least an official name of it to search with?

It looks a lot like a Bachmann HO Scale USRA 0-6-0 with a Vanderbilt tender judging by the pics. All I really know about them is that they were used on a lot of different railroads.

Thanks T-Man, You may be right, Using the info you give I did find an old Ebay Listing from 2012 that had this exact train and they called it Bachman and an 0-6-0 but I still can't find any other info on this ones fuel.
