    Dave,

     

     

    (Just tried to PM you, but apparently you can't receive pms anymore)

     

     

    I was wondering if you might know of any rigid tender frame USA lcoos that might look good on the Santa Fe project. So far I've found this CB&G class N1, a almost LNER looking engine.

      There are a lot of early locomotives that would look right at home out there but a three-axle rigid-frame tender might be difficult. They were never popular here; probably due to the loco's larger loading gauge which would require more fuel to be hauled; not to mention the longer distances between stations/fueling points.

       

      PS: I looked at my profile but did not see anything about PM settings.

      I have read most (maybe all?) of the series; they are quite good, especially if read in chronological order as one can follow Sharpe's military progress throughout his career. BTW I think that is Harper leading the file with Sharpe on the right "checking their six". :jester:

      Hmmm, a thought just occurred: take the truck to Australia and see if it curves to the left. :yahoo_mini:

      Beer??? My kind of delivery! :jester:

      Hmmm, I noticed (just before I hit the "post" button) that the truck is a wind-up, nice. How does it steer, or does it follow a set course depending on the angle of the front wheels?

    Is it wrong to have a beer at the workbench?

    1. J. S. Bach

      J. S. Bach

      As long as the beer is not the one one the right, it is the absolute worst brew that I have ever had. I think they dove down on the FITZ and pumped the bilges:bad::

      Instead of beer, this wine would be very appropriate:
