This model is a fictional Gorre & Daphetid Railroad reskin of Michael Stephan’s Gas-Electric Doodlebug. The freeware base model is available here: http://golden-age-rails.com/packsrw/doodlebug.html .
John Allen was a pioneer in the field of model railroading - as a professional photographer he had the artistic talent and attention to detail to create and document incredibly realistic scenes. He developed a story of origin, including humor and numerous references to his friends in the model railroading and model railroading publishing industry. His Gorre & Daphetid has become a bench mark for many generations of model railroaders, including me.
The model installs to Assets\GreatNortherner\SteamEra\RailVehicles\Engines\ Doodlebug\GnD. In the scenario editor it is listed as: Doodlebug GnD.
