Hello Streamliner, you are welcome in the forum of Rivarossi Memory. Could you please let us know something more about you? You are free to send your messages in English, we shall take care of a proper translation, actually we already have other english speaking friends and this does not create any problem.
Going back to your question, actually Rivarossi did manufacture two locomotives with the Atlantic wheel arrangement in the early years of its history. The first loco was a model of the Milwaukee Road Hiawatha, today this is probably the most valuable collector's item from Rivarossi. The other model was a reproduction of a Southern Pacific prototype, a very good model for its age.
We shall be pleased to give you more detailed information if you could send some photos of your model: if you have difficulties in attaching images to your messages in the forum you could simply send an email to "rivarossi-memory.it" and send the images as attachments, we shall load them into the forum.
Best regards
Talgo49
