Model Railroading > Bowser C430s?Date: 05/06/22 14:50 Bowser C430s? Author: ns6669sd60 I have been trying to find some of these without any real luck. I am looking for NYC, PC, or PC/CR patch, any road number, without sound. Has anybody seen any of these at your local hobby shops and can point me in that direction?
Thanks Date: 05/06/22 17:05 Re: Bowser C430s? Author: wabash2800 If no one can help, do a saved search on ebay under the advanced search option and one will eventually show up. The Alco Century Series locos have always been my favorite diesel locos, particularly the C-430 (with the NYC cigar band!)

I've noted lately that a lot of stuff on eBay is much much harder to find these days than it used to be... And some things (Atlas Conrail Dash-8s in particular) never ever appear...

I've noticed the same thing and it's because E-bay pissed Alot of potential sellers off with added fees and other BS! It's a shame too because not all that long ago, one could find some pretty good deals on just about anything you wanted! Date: 05/08/22 17:16 Re: Bowser C430s? Author: RayH Maybe try looking on HOSwap on IO. People looking for certain models post on "Wish List Wednesday". Good luck. The 430's are really nice (I have 3 of them in NYSW paint).

The 430's are really nice (I have 3 of > them in NYSW paint). I agree - very nice units. I have a NYC, an early NYSW, an Alco Demonstrator and a SCL. I wish I would have bought the other two Demonstrators when I could have. They (the Demonstrator) made it to some interesting places on the NYC including the West Side Freight line on Manhattan Island. Posted from Android |
