Hey Guys, I got a call from a friend of mine that works for a brass modeling company. He's looking for a project. Is there anything you would like to see made?...
William, Please use your last name when signing your posts. I have no idea who you are and would therefore tend not to respond until your identity is ...
Hey, I am looking for good photos of Monon 500 series 2-8-2s especially numbers 570 thru 579 that were sold in the late 40's to the Pittsburg & Shawmut...
Hey Willam, I don't know that many of these will translate for other lines, but a few things come to mind: -There is a lack of local freight steam engines for...

Mike and William, I would like to know who William is (last name) and with whom he is discussing brass projects. With all of the new offerings in HO R-T-R ...
I have a few HO scale Monon engines for sale on Ebay: Digitrax –Super Chief Radio Starter Set Item E-bay Item # 150079720448 Atlas Master Locomotive Series #...
Mont, Is the Branchline 40 foot welded side boxcar yet to be released? I don't see it on their web site. Sure will make the job easier, they already have...
I took these pictures at the Whistle Stop's storage facility. Hopefully, everybody has made a trip to Monon and tried out their food especially the "Train...
Hi, Upon doing a little research with what books I have available I find the MONON had both Light & Heavy USRA Mikados; my question is, what were the ones...
... Dave, The J-2 550-4 were the light USRAs and the J-4 570-9 the heavy USRA. (...or were they just similar to heavy USRAs) Tim T. Swan has a heavy BLI that...
William, I also model the Monon in N Scale. Late 1940s, and soon Bloomington, Bedford, etc. So, both steam and first generation diesel. No one does NW-2s...
Mike, I discussed this with Bill Schneider of BLT last week. All he would say is they are going to do a welded body like the riveted one currently in their...
William, Thank you for the response and your last name. My comments were geared for HO scale so I doubt they are applicable to the N scale market of which I...
Mike, Don't forget the 560-565 series. These were dead nuts on USRA heavy 2-8-2's. These are the ones Overland did years ago in HO. They are extremely...
Dave, The 570 series 2-8-2'sw were J-4's. They were dimensionally the same as the USRA heavy 2-8-2, but many accessories were more modern. The easiest of...
Mont, I agree that they would have to have deposits. Dave was saying that it could be either N or HO scales. I need to get with you about the decals. I need 3...
Dave, I know what you mean. There is very little selection in N scale. I have kit-bashed 2 cabooses, modified most of my engines, re-worked auto racks, and...

Mont, Thanks for the info. I wonder why BLI and others haven't used this number series. Are those the compressors on the pilot of the J-4s under cover? Mike ...
Mont, So the 1-500s were dimensionally the same as a 1937AAR car? If so I'll get rid of the CBT Shops car I got for the project. Regards, Mike Aufderheide ...
George, I wonder if they are for Dale Ward's gravel quarry in Francesville? They look like the cars they used to move the newly quarried rock to the crusher....
Do the Broadway Limited Heany and Light Mikes do a good job of representing these locomotives? And do the new Pacifics they are introducing come close to Monon...
Mike, No, the 1-500 series cars are 10'6" IH while the AAR 1937's are 10'0" so keep your CB&T car. The CB&T car is fine for the 1-500 series. However, the BLT...
