MaxiTrak - E.M.Baldwin narrow gauge diesel loco, 5" or 4 3/4" Gauge, Ready to Run 
 
These engines were constructed by EM Baldwin and sons of Castle Hill, New South Wales, Australia.
 
The company supplied smaller locomotives for industry from the 1950's to the 1980's. Designs included shunting, mining and tunnel locomotives but the most common surviving engines were built for the Queensland sugar industry. At this time the extensive 2ft gauge lines were changing from steam to diesel traction. EM Baldwin built a large number of the replacement diesels to a continuously evolving design, to the extend that there are hardly two alike. Engines and gearboxes varied depending on power requirements and suppliers delivery dates etc.
The usual sugar industry livery was bright yellow with red and white striped buffer beams, many enjoyed further enhancement with coloured stripes and panels giving the modeller many opportunities to customise the standard colour scheme.
 
Many of these engines are still hard at work in the cane cutting season, and form the backbone of the largest surviving 2ft gauge industrial railway system in the world.
 
Our model features a wealth of detail surrounding a solid steel body and chassis, the 24v 4QC control system, 2 batteries and 8 motors make it a powerful yet easy to handle single handedly when broken down into chassis, body and batteries.
