Hello there!
My names Ben and my Railway is the Lilac & Pacific Ry.
Its sorta a loose scale railway with stuff ranging from 1:24 to 1:20.3, But its based to be a 3ft gauge railway based in north eastern WA.
This thread will be basically where I post all the updates to my roster and the kitbashing that will ensue on every one of my locomotives.
This is my roster so far minus my Bach 4-6-0.
All my locomotives are numbered in the order I acquired them.
I think I’m naming them all as well.
This Is Little Lilly, My very first G scale locomotive I got when I was 7.
At the time of posting this I’m 21.
Shes a Heartland Locomotive Works 0-4-0.
Converted to REVO battery power.

Looking forward to seeing the kitbashes!
Hi, Ben. Welcome.
Hi Ben;
You have a really nice locomotive roster. I like to “bash” some off the wall types of whimsical powered vehicles, so I thought you might enjoy a couple of examples. The first is my Geneva & New Bern Railroad’s “Fast Mail” vehicle. It was created using a one liter sparkling water bottle and a ducted fan drive (electric jet engine for models). The ducted fan drive is not supposed to receive more than 10 volts, but I have never had enough straight track to even approach 9 volts.
The Rail Beetle was built using a die cast 1:24 VW bug and the old MDC speeder trailer. The motor is in the trailer, so the trailer actually propels the auto.
Best Wishes, David Meashey
