HO Scale Norfolk and Western Rivarossi Y6B 2-8-8-2 #2156
Price: US $123.50

Up for sale is a custom lettered Rivarossi Norfolk and Western Y6B 2-8-8-2. I purchased this unit, along with several others like it, from an estate at a local show. According to the original owner, they were display engines with very little run time. The condition of the motor and drivetrain lends me to believe this to be true. I cleaned and lubricated the unit, and ran it through a break in run.It ran smooth and strong.

When I received it, it was numbered Pennsylvania 2197. Utilizing Microscale decals I blacked out thenameon the tender, and renumbered it to Norfolk and Western 2156. In prototype, the 2156 is the only preserved member of the Y class Mallets. The decals are done very well, with little to no silvering, but are not perfect as shown in the photos.

The shell and tender are in fantastic physical shape aside from one minor blemishon the running board as shown.

I am selling this item because it has become excess in my collection. It has no box, but will be packaged with care.

Rivarossi only made one number of theY6B, and Broadway Limited Imports did not include this in their run.Unless you want to pay &nsb;$400 for BLI units, this would make a fantastic addition to any NW steam modeler\'s roster.
