Sakai A48000 | O Gauge Railroading On Line Forum

This A48000 just arrived this morning from Australia. This has been on the search list for quite a few years. Someday it will get repainted a medium blue like it should be, but for now I am happy just to own one that has not rotted to pieces.
What type of coaches came with it? Were the similar to the prewar Lionel 600 series or ??? What years were they made?

Bruce it's part of a larger layout, but it is a 4x8 section that does not have track linking to the rest of the layout.

There were two of these locos at York a few years back. Both were crumbling everywhere on the body and the wheels.
