Aster

We are the USA West Coast dealer for Aster Hobbies locomotives. Aster specialize in limited editions of very accurately made live steam locomotives. They come as either fully built or kits, mainly to US, British and German outline. We have extensive personal experience in building and operating many of their models. Aster locos generally appreciate in value over time.

The Allegheny must surely be the king of the Aster locomotives. Exquisitely detailed, and with Aster's insistence on modeling the correct mechanical workings as well, this is the ultimate locomotive for the discerning collector. Professionally built up from kits, and tuned and tested at Sunset Valley Railroad for optimum running qualities. Kit price is $21,000 hand built $25,000

The 1:32 scale Mikado has been one of Aster’s most successful locos. It steams very freely, and is extremely powerful; our kit-built Mikado pulls a 70 ft long 45-car hopper freight train, which is an impressive sight. This engine also represents very good value for money considering the size of engine. The picture shows our Mikado hard at work on our railroad. Kit price is $3813, factory built $4474.
The Berkshire is now sold out, please enjoy the video of the Berkshire on the Sunset Valley Railroad pulling 72 cars with power to spare.

The new S2 is now available from stock in both the Green livery (shown) or black. The engine specs include C type boiler, superheater, 2 cylinders (15mm bore x 23mm stroke), working draincocks, axle and tender water pumps, whistle, electric headlight, water tank drain. Choose from either the kit or the ready to run version.

In addition, Sunset Valley offfers an exclusive 1:32 scale Great Northern caboose to complement the locomotive. Made from real wood sheathing over a strong steel frame, it is a model of the 30 foot wood exterior caboose built from 1941 to 1945. Only 25 will be made. Price is $365 plus shipping.

Southern Railways 'Battle of Britain" class Pacific loco. Also known as the 'Spam Can', due to its air smoothed casing, the loco was a very popular and widely used engine in Southern England in the post war period. The Aster model has the correct 3 cylinder arrangement. Available in Southern (shown) and BR liveries, in kit or factory built versions. Call for pricing .

 

Roundhouse

We are the Pacific Northwest dealer for Roundhouse . This UK company makes mainly British and American outline narrow gauge locomotives and they are well engineered to give years of trouble free service. There is heavy demand for Roundhouse products, and the current waiting list is up to 9 months. However we can offer the following either in Stock at Sunset Valley or on short delivery.

The Roundhouse Sandy River loco is one of their most popular models. It is 27.5" long, 6" high and 4.7" wide, weighing 12.5 lbs.  Gas fired, with r/c control.
The Darjeeling is now available. This is an easy steamer and a strong engine.
The Katie is now available. The picture shows Katie on our garden railway. A sweet and dependable engine.
Millie is perhaps the best 'starter' loco to get you going in the hobby.
