Kato's Oscar (009 but N Gauge chassis)

[zwilnik]

I saw Oscar at the N Gauge Show this weekend and was very impressed. While it's actually a OO9 model, Kato are selling the motor chassis separately and it looks ideal for making small 0-4-0 N Gauge steam locos. It's fully 12V (so doesn't need a resistor fitting to run) and even has a coupling pocket.

Rails are showing a pre-order for it now. I'd be surprised if Train Trax doesn't have it listed soon too.
