Hello everybody,
Thought it was time to up date you all to why I haven't posted for the last nine months. I grew restless and unsatisfied with the way the layout was progressing. I just didn't want to work on it. So I decided to fulfill a promise I made to myself when I was 13 yrs old. I bought a live steam locomotive.
No not a ride on. I purchased an Accucraft live steame 4-4-0. It's scale is 1:20.3 or Fn3. And this will require an outside layout to operate on. I've been working on her on and foo since July updating her to look like NCNG's #1, a 4-4-0 which was converted to oil around 1920 and that is how I'm detailing my locomotive. Here take a look,
She's 28" long, it's weight is 25 lbs. empty. Under the brass tank in the tender is the fuel tank which is filled with butane. These aren't the most recent photos but are the best of what I've got.
Now for updates with the Hopedale & Barre. Right now I still don't feel like working on it. It's not going amywhere soon.
Talk to ya later.
Chester

Hey Chester:
ReplyDeleteGreat to hear from you - it has been a while!
Live steam is great fun - I have some myself. No layout, but I run it at friends' places.
Happy New Year - keep in touch!
Hi Chester,
ReplyDeletegood to see that you are still modelling. What's in the box behind the loco? I can see a pair of freight trucks.
Enjoy your steaming!
