Description: This is a GTW U-3-b 4-8-4 HO scale locomotive imported by Oriental Limited and made by Samhongsa in South Korea. One or two of these U-3-b engines also ran on the Canadian National CN in the late 1950's so you CN guys can run this engine too. The engine is new in the original box . These were made in 1982 and only 175 were produced. I bought this engine new in 1982 ( 40 years ago ! ) and it has been in the original box since then. I never ran it as I did not have a layout. It has never been on a track and still has the large bent brass protector for the front of the locomotive attached with two screws. Until about a couple of years ago I was Grand Trunk Western fan # 1 and collected everything GTW, Models, books, photos, negatives, blueprints....in short , everything GTW. When I lived in Michigan I roamed the GTW from 1970 to the mid 1990's taking photos of everything. I was always a closet Pennsy guy and since moving out here in PA I decided to go to the "Dark Side" and go PRR ........so I'm selling my 50+ year collection of GTW stuff and more will be listed in the near future.
