H0 Tinplate Coaches, Who Made Them? | O Gauge Railroading On Line Forum

Picked up a cool foursome of H0 tin coaches, no markings other than the side plates say Passenger Car. They sort of make me think of Sakai. Anyone recognize them?

thanks

Steve

Those are really neat! The coach body looks American, and so do the trucks. However the couplers appear to be similar to European design. I would be very interested in learning more about these. Thanks for posting!

Who even did HO tinplate? I'm aware that Bing did tabletop, marklin and fleischmann but who else?

A few guys on the Yahoo Sakai group have confirmed they are Sakai.
