FOR SALE: 7 1/4" 4 Axle Diesel Hydraulic Switcher For Sale

7 1/4" 4 Axle Diesel Hydraulic Switcher For Sale

This engine was built by a member of The Golden Horseshoe Live Steamers of Hamilton, Ontario, Canada.  The builder, now retired, was a life long owner of his own machine shop and therefore is a skilled builder.  He previously built and continues to operate a pair of road diesels which he built prior to this locomotive. The engine for sale is powered by a gasoline engine driving a hydraulic motor.   It was scaled up from an HO model of the same locomotive.  It has been run for only a few hours at our track and is essentially in “like new” condition.  It is unpainted to allow you to paint it in your favourite road’s colours.

The asking price is $5,000 U.S. plus shipping costs.  It is located in Hamilton, Ontario, Canada.

To further enquire about the engine, call Abe at 905-945-9105

Here is a video of it operating on the Golden Horseshoe Live Steamers track:
