Can anyone tell me if a model Hymek has been brought out in N? and if so, by
who? Or would anyone have one to sell? Prefer Green, but would take Blue.

No ready-to-run version that I know of, but I think Peco used to make a body
kit some years ago.

I read it was Silver Fox but that could be wrong. They certainly don't now.

Peco certainly did do a Hymek kit, it's in a catalogue I have from the early
1970s.

Peco did a cast kit in the 1970s which fitted the Arnold Class 215 chassis.
it was a nice kit but rather short and squat.

A better bet is the more recent Silver Fox resin kit that fits the GF 33
chassis and is far truer to scale, though also out of production at present.

Who knows, with all these wonderful new Western Region locos and stock
coming out in N, someone may bless us with a decent RTR model.
