I finally got around to posting this on YouTube - I KNOW that somebody on this site was asking me about it, just can’t recall who it was, though, sorry.

Here it is, tootling around on my little track in the sunshine, and yes, I KNOW that there is a wheel on the ground…

Jeff over at Shawmut Car Shops did his usual excellent job again, and replicated the loco to be seen on page 19 of Dale Sanders book ‘The Northern Pacific’. I dunno what it is, but it just rang all the bells for me, diesel tho’ it may be, and I often look at the photo and imagine that I am there taking it.

A customer of Jeff’s saw mine and instantly demanded one just like it - Jeff produced it, but with a different road number, so mine is one of only two in existence. Pretty cool, eh?

That’s odd. I’ve already edited my post to show the correct version that Ken posted. I did it as soon as the movie got edited and had a proper title.

What’s goin’ on?

Tac, I’ve ordered decals from Jeff but no rolling stock. Hopefully someday I will be able to have him make me some custom McCloud River Railroad equipment.
