These models look superbly built with fine detail and scale fidelity. I wonder if they are still around and if so, where are they ? The Kirtley / Johnson 0-6-0 is my favorite of the group. It must've taken a resourceful and talented modeller to build these fine models back in this era of scarce supplies and limited tools.
