Does anyone know where I can purchase a Eureka & Truckee, Spectrum 4-4-0, Model 81396?  I've got an eBay search activated but if anyone has a gently used one for sale, I'm interested.

The Eureka & Palisade 4-4-0 is one of the top 3 hardest Spectrum 4-4-0s to find.   The other 2 being the South Pacific Coast #3, and the painted unlettered black.   Heck the Eureka & Palisades sold like hot cakes when they first came out.  Though the Olive Green 4-4-0 (Which is actually a very dark blue) does pop up on Ebay quite often, as does the Lake Russian Iron 4-4-0 (Which is a Burgandy color), and those 2 are fairly close to the Eureka & Palisade.  Train World Online does sell the Baltimore & Lehigh number #6, and Ebay gets quite a number of the Denver & Rio Grande and Painted Unlettered Russian Iron models as well, but good luck finding the Top 3 (SPC #3, painted unlettered black, and Eureka & Palisade) because those 3 are extremely rare and very tough to find.
