I know we can get production numbers from the webside of Southern Steam Trains or some other Aster Dealers, but they are base on total production. I have ask a few times for how many were produced in steam or electric. How many are Kits or RTR. How many are black or green, etc. It seems that , the information is not available. I n my personal opinion, it would be nice to be able to have more specific information of specific production numbers of every engine.
The other day i was talking to Pete Comley, and to my surprise i was told that they sell more KITS than RTR engines in a 2:1 or 3:1 on Aster Engines, but he was not able to find out more specific numbers. For me and i guess for many of you, if were to have such information available, that will help us a lot whenever we spot an Aster engine on Ebay, etc. and find out if the information supplied is correct considering the information available or for buying purposes or resale purposes.
