@CGiordano464 well considering im not involved with the guys who presently own it. but it was scratch built by a private builder back in the mid to late 60's or 70's i believe.
@Engineer5344 This engine was built by the Strasburg rail road in Strasburg Co. They are buildind a K28 in 15in gauge. Not to sure if it is finished yet.
@nicholasbreeden Yes. the enngine was on loan from the Strasburg railroad in Strasburg Co. The engine is back at Strasburg. they wanted to much to lease the engine. The railroad at Heritage Square in Golden Co has the heaver rail and broader curves The Strasburg rail road has to sharp of curves to run it, so now it sits or run on limted track.
Whoever built that engine sure done a good job! The railroad is perfect for that engine and might I add, that 5 chime just rocks for 15 inch gauge.
