2-6-2 The next project

Unread postby KCJones » Fri Feb 18, 2011 5:25 am

The first US steam locomotive I was aware of in my distant youth was a Prairie.

Therefore my next offering is a small 2-6-2 with either a coal tender or an oil vanderbilt type.

I have also included some of the developments found in the Shays, animated bell, illuminated headlight number boards and working rear headlight.

Some modifications no longer work because of the continual "upgrading" of RailWorks !*hp*! !*don-know!*

Those are nice ones. I especially like how they look on the Cascades Sub (Willamette).

I suddenly realize that I've never bought any of your packs. !**conf**!
Now, I think the time has come to do that because all your steam models are awesome. !!*ok*!!

It had been suspiciously quiet for too long :D

Look forward to adding another to the growing stable of US steam.

Is it just me, or does the tender texture appear a lighter colour than the engine?? To me, it looks like two distinct different shades of grey

Looking forward to their release as always...

!*cheers*!

Another great addition to the stable, Dick. !!*ok*!! Will the SP caboose appear in some set sooner or later? That would a big plus for my favorite road. *!lol!*
