Re: July RMC Editorial on NG diesels

The Wuiske Models are pretty easy to convert from HOn3.5 to Hon3. Takes about 10 or 15 minutes. Mike May and I have an article submitted to The Gazette a couple of months ago on models we both built..simultaneously...across the country from each other.. collaborating as we built. Bob Brown has not given us a date for publication as yet. When we built our models, the Wuiske Models locomotives were $295 Australian plus shipping. That equaled out to about $235 US WITH shipping for me at the time. The Wuiske model locomotives that Mike and I used were made in Tawan by Haskel, and were VERY well made and detailed. They do come with full-sized Kadee (#5) couplers, however. Also, they are DCC-ready. You will need to provide a speaker (they have space and holes in the fuel tanks), and the decoder.

Zach, From your business base of HO standard gauge customers, I can see where you might think narrow gauge modeling is in a decline, but that isn't the case. I do agree with your comment about not being able to depend on "traditional manufacturers" for narrow gauge products, as I guess they have their hands full of designing and introducing standard gauge locomotives and rolling stock, every few months! Best wishes for your business. Mark Lewis Narrow gauge modeling in N.C.
