Title: Strombecker locomotives
Post by: Dave Tunison on May 23, 2026, 05:53:45 PM
Strombecker locomotive kits that I have assembled from the box or re-assembled. 1934-1954 is the period for these wooden models.

Gradually over many years at flea markets and the usual online auction sites. They were often a jumbled collection of parts that looked like the attached photo (or worse).
