About Tomball locomotive works

[Dreyfusshudson]

Recently noticed that Tomball locomotive works provided Resin steam loco shells for n scale.
Although it seems like out of business, Its shells were well made.
How's its worth?

Tomball locomotive works was Jason Smith, aka superturbine here on railwire. he made many cast resin shells for modified Kato chassis of the mikado, and GS4 mechs. Life, kids and motorcycles got in the way. His layout featured in N Scale Railroading MAR/April 2010 is still standing, hoping as life slows down a bit he may get back to some casting work, were are keeping our fingers crossed!!!!!

He did some spectacular work with cast molds and extension of Kato Mikado chassis.  It's too bad he was not able to continue, but I get the challenge with family and other work commitments.  Hopefully he will come back to model railroading projects in the future!
