It seems this locomotive has not been produced extensively in O-scale. This MTH model is the only 3-rail O-scale version I have seen. Lionel has not produced a model of it and Sunset/3rd-Rail produced a model of the even rarer 4-6-4-4 with the rearwards-facing rear cylinders. I've seen one HO model in brass. I did not realize its relative rarity until I happened to win the MTH model on eBay--I was lucky the bidding did not go very high.
You may be out of luck. MTH has yet to re-release the Q2 but what your seeing, and hearing, is a PS2 Q2. The Q2 was released in either 2000-2001. Chances are that they will release the Q2 in Railking before releasing it again in Premier.
Also, is MTH Premier engines all you buy, or do you buy other brands too?

I'm a total newbie to model railroading. I'm really looking for this model in HO scale. Does it exist?

Apparently, from what I've just heard, BLI may be producing this in HO scale.

Great to see other Q2 engines out and about. We got ours out of sheer dumb luck! Last one available at the time!

Hi ToyTrains,
What amazing models. Great shots too.
Have look at our stuff. Very British but you'll like it, I know.
Cheers

Ah, the most powerful in pulling force and horsepower for a Non-Articulated is in O gauge!

@Beaver456 I thought the N&W y6b had the most powerful in pulling force.
