Dear friends:
So now after two months we’ve logged 92 locomotives with no end in sight. Will we be hitting 1,000 in time? But only if we get information from present and past owners can we greatly increase the quality of this effort. We need people in-the-know to fill in all the missing chunks. In most cases, logging the loco on this page is only the beginning!
The recently-added Rick Hann (see foreign-prototype 0-6-0T) did everything right. He sent me all the info requested plus photos. I’m otherwise in the business of trying to find locos on the Internet.
As stated previously: I can only mail out these two files to people who have given me an email address. But hopefully these lists will also be appearing on the IBLS (International Brotherhood) webpage.
All the best,

Bill Yoder of Germany has compiled a list of 3/4 inch scale live steam locomotives in North America, both American prototypes as well as Foreign prototypes.

Dear friends:

So now we’re up to 163 locos, but the information on many locos is far from complete or current, and getting a high-quality directory will depend upon more info being offered by locomotive owners and their friends. And with luck, we should be up over 300 locos by the end of 2016. Without a photo, I do not want to list any loco.

Count on the next up-dated version appearing at the end of December - or the end of January at the latest. In order to keep file size down, the directory will be split up into an increasing number of files as the number of entries grows. We have three files now.

You should always find the latest version of this directory on the IBLS website. If you don’t want to receive these files by eMail, I can easily drop you off the list.

Happy steaming,

Bill Yoder
