Yes, thanks very much Loco Bill. First class info and very helpful. The B & O loco I've sourced is indeed a version 5. Haven't seen matching coaches on UK ebay or dealers but have sourced some from Florida on US ebay.  I've also won a Blue Comet set on UK ebay, so waiting in anticipation for that.

Thanks again.

Hi,
I have a B & O 4-6-0 which I think has a 5th generation chassis fitted. I'm trying to source both B and O and Blue Comet coaches to go with the loco. Can you tell me when these where produced and if they are still available new. Did they only come as a part of a set? Also were they exported to the UK or only made available in the USA.

I've found some second hand coaches on e bay but they seem quite rare.

Thanks for your help
