For how many years did A.C. Gilbert produce the Hudson, K4, Northern and Atlantic locomotives in O gauge before using the same castings to produce the locomotives in S gauge?
Based on the catalogs, it looks like the Hudson and Nothern came in '39, the K-5 in '40, and the Atlantic, 0-8-0 and Royal Blue in '41
