Notes:

These engines ran on 3'6" gauge track in South Africa, so the 1:64 scale model can run on HO-scale track. The model was available in ready-to-run or in kit form, with two different tender types. It had NMRA RP25 flanges and Kadee couplers. This was the only product this company ever made. The ready-to-run models were kits built up by DJH Model Loco out of Consettt, England. DJH Model Loco is now owned by Squires Tools, but no longer produces this specific kit (it still does O- and HO-scale models for the SAR).
