The Saginaw PRR H-10

Nice find.  I see these come up for sale occasionally, but usually at a price point more than I'm willing to part with.  I have the CLW one with the open cab as you mention.  I don't know much about the history of Saginaw models.  I would like to learn more myself.

Bob Smith(?) of Central got the Saginaw patterns after they folded but I do not remember the year. Some years ago, the Ft. Lauderdale 0 scale club (Florida Atlantic Lines) that I belonged to made arrangements to visit Bob as one of our meetings. We had a lot of interesting discussions but, unfortunately, that was quite a few years ago and most has slipped away now.

Nice find, I would like to know more about Saginaw models.

Here is my Saginaw PRR G5 4-6-0. The boiler and tender are bronze with a separate brass firebox. This one has about a million brass rivets individually applied to the tender. The bent over pins can be seen in the tender coal bunker.

Here is the link to more information on Saginaw locomotives:

The Saginaw G5 is a very interesting model.  Growing up on Long Island in the late 40's in Ronkonkoma, NY, LIRR G5's were my introduction to steam.  Looking at the photo I believe the Saginaw G5 model has the best dimensioned/shaped boiler of any commercially produced 2 rail G5 produced to date. Pairing a Saginaw G5 with a MG, Sunset, or Weaver G5 tender would make for a good looking well-proportioned model of the prototype. 

That is a very nice Saginaw G5. Given it’s age, its condition is excellent.
