Number 25

This locomotive is kitbashed from an MDC old time 2-8-0 frame with a Mantua Shifter boiler and a scratch built cab. The sound is a Soundtraxx Tsunami D&RGW 2-8-0 decoder.

Cool look'n layout, what's the size? My kind of scenery dude! thumbs up and five stars!

[crownironman]

thanks, the layout is in a room 9'-10" x 21'-0". I just sold an article on it to Kalmbach and in the next couple years they may publish it in one of their mags.

Sweet. A fine little engine, from the looks of it! I recognize the Shifter boiler...is it the older cast metal or newer plastic? Where'd you get that shorty tender?

[crownironman]

The boiler is the old cast metal boiler. The tender is scratchbuilt.  Go to Railroad-line forums and search for "holiday locomotive project" to find a thread on its construction.

Thanks

Awesome vid! How did you model the coal load in the tender (and the hopper for that matter?) I am scratchbuilding a loco right now and am a bit up in the air as to how I'm going to model the coal load realistically. Thanks! ~Aaron
