Re: Old engine

If the ends are rounded and the thing looks somewhat streamlined it could be a GG1 from any number of makers.

Re: Old engine

not rounded, the cab is in the center and a nose slopes down each direction to a square front.

How many wheels, diecast or tinplate, length?

Re: Old engine

It would seem we are looking at some sort of steeple cab electric with trolley poles. Is the model brass (gold color),or is it die cast (silvery gray color)? If it is brass,it may have had lead weights added to make it heavier.
