Yes, we had buy locomotives from other countries as reliable Norwegian steam locomotives are extremely had to procure. We had two NMJ Superline, but we found very quickly they would fit heavy operation. They don't have regular couplers, neither traction tires and would derail on the Trix C-Tracks in the shadow station. They are just made to look good, but drive poorly. We went for locomotives which give the correct feel for the era, so no German one with the characteristics red wheel. Most of our visitors would not notice it, and the others would understand why we had to do like that.
@@trainsofnorway9664 Yes, Mæarklin, Trix and Roco have one. (or had one) We didn't see one for a good price at the last train show (we used already way too much on the project) We might buy one for version 2 or 3, when we have expanded the layout.
