O gauge Y-6b/HO Y's

[NW Modeling List]

Well from a manufacturing viewpoint, the Y5/Y6/Y6a makes lots of  
sense because so little has to be changed between versions.  Add the  
non-streamlined tender for the earlier versions, and you could offer  
the tender as a separate item for your "A".  With All the M Class  
engines you'd think someone would make one of those.  It IS the last  
N&W Engine under steam.  Maybe a Z1/Z1a/Z1b as well.  They had a  
snoot load of them too.  Perhaps manufacturers are just making 'entry  
level' subjects, and the J, and Y6b are easy subjects.  I was  
actually astonished that a Y3 was produced since more than 20 were  
made.  LOL
