I remember seeing a book about American built locos in Australia. If you found out what types of American stuff to use you could use, you could probably repaint it for the Australian company. I don't know if that would be any cheaper.

very few were exact copies, in fact, i'm pretty sure that none were US locos exported to australia, excepting the Iron Ore lines, and even then, you'd be doing a lot of modification

Nobody's posted here for awhile, so I thought that I'd awaken it again. I'm modeling 1976. It was a fun era because people still had television antennas, and CB radios were hot, so there were also CB antennas all over the place. It gives me something to add to houses and cars. There was also a good mixture of rolling stock, including my favorite, the all door boxcar (thrall door).

I have four radios in my car. One is the in-dash radio-cassette, another is the CB (my handle is Bandit), the third is the police two-way mobile unit (GE-Ericson) and the fourth is the Motorola 16 channel hand-held unit. If you want to be technical, there's another radio, the police scanner.
