A friend brought me an O gauge tinplate loco and car wondering if I could get it running. It belonged to his father and was purchased about 1935. The only markings on the locomotive are "Comodor Vanderbilt" along the jacket, and a "Ney York Central" hearald on the front under the light. Anyone out there have any idea of the manufacturer, or any history? If you have further contacts or info you can e-mail me at millcstl1@mindspring.com Thanks, Scott Remember the Rio Grande!

Hi, Scott... It's been along time, my friend. I believe I can direct you to someone who may have the knowledge you desire. Contact, joestrainrepair@yahoo.com I have been using Joe for my American Flyer repairs and he has been in this hobby a long time. He is very knowledgeable. If he doesn't have your answer, he will know someone who will. Let me know how you make out. Be sure and tell him I referred you. Thanks and have a great Christmas, Scott. ...Richard Schivley P.S. Joe's Train Repair is located in, Rougemont, NC; (Durham area)
