Like many Nn3 modellers my first investments were the white metal Peco kits.
These are rather crude but are the easiest way to get into the gauge.
There are two steam locomotive kits available, a tramway tank (NG-651) and saddle tank (NG-652). Each kit comprises of several parts which fit on a Marklin z gauge steam loco chassis.
Each loco requires a lot of filing and bending in order to fit together. This is due to the age of the kit which pre-dates the Peco labelling.
As mentioned above each kit fits on a Marklin Z gauge chassis. There are several versions of the DRG BR89 0-6-0 available, two with three pole motors (8805, dating from 1972) and one with a smoother five pole variant (88051).
I'll be attempting to modify both kits to give a less standard look.
Footnote: note the dual gauge track, this fell apart when I dropped it!
