N-Scale Locomotive Encyclopedia


This is a pictorial encylopedia of N-scale locomotive models (restricted to North American locomotives, or models factory-painted in North American livery schemes). Listed are all of the N-scale locomotives that I have owned at one time or another, or locomotives that I've verified to probably exist. Narrow gauge locomotives are not included, nor are locomotive shells (sorry).

Research (especially on the older locomotives) has been extensive. This has involved tracking down the very few N scale collector's guides that have been published over the years, purchasing and skimming every single issue of Model Railroader from the early 60's on, obsessively monitoring eBay auctions, scouring the internet in general, and (possibly most importantly) corresponding with many of the people actually involved in the creation of these models. Like all human endeavors, there are bound to be some mistakes in these listings, but hopefully I've kept them to a minimum.
