Large Scale Central

Pipe Dreams or My Short Haul Steamer

One of these days I’m going to build this…

I bought a B’mann chassis of the Annie persuasion. On sale it was 55 bucks for the wheels and motor. Such a deal!

Since all my trains pull a canteen as an aux supply and to bring fresh water to the wives of the section hands along the route, a big tender wasn’t necessary as my mine run is 50 miles round trip.

This sleek beauty caught my eye, but needs a longer smoke box …

More like the next, but back dated to the above

With my luck, I’ll end up with this;

Happy Rails!

Bonus;

I nicknamed the narrow ga. version; The Mudson, faster than those hens!

I’m committed to the Mik Challenge, so you’ve got a head start!

IMO, the ultimate of the type…essentially a New York Central hudson modified for commuter service:
