Ok! Its FINALY DONE!!! :faint: At least for the most part. ^^;

This is COMPLETELY of my own desing. Its a small Narrow Gauge Outside Frame 2-4-0 intended to be gauged for 3 feet. But I also think she'd make a WONDERFULL 30in gauge loco as well.

When I thought up the little steamer I imagined her running on a small Railroad or Railway high up in the Rockies. the Road's main source of comerce would be from the hundreds of mines that dotted the area back durring the 1880's.

I wanted a small squat, but powerful road locomotive. My first attempt was this. ==> [link] <==

It's nice, to a degree. But it wasn't quite what I was looking for. I wanted a road engine rather than a switcher, so I added a lead axel to the new redition. Also this little loco just might end up being a Virtual Model for Trainz! (I sertantly do HOPE that happens!) ;p

EDIT: I forgot to mention that my "Size Refference" is a bit too tall. ^^;

It's nice to see an inside frame locomotive. Great job.

Ha, really cute! :D The outside frames look cool. Kinda nice how the firebox tucks right in between the frames and behind the drivers back there!

Help save the Lost Engines of Roanoke...write the Virginia Museum of Transportation NOW to inform the powers that be that a locomotive's SOUL is even more valuable than the collective sum of the STEEL that contains it...stop the sectioning of the 4-8-0s!

I thought so too! I may even make it a project to make a model of her on On30! Using the Bachmann Outside frame Forney. :D
