These are lovely little locos, they had a few issues with the original gas tanks and replacements were available. Another issue was that they had incorrect spelling and incorrect font styles on works plates. I had done a run of correct works plates some years ago and they were very popular. I still have some left.
Looks great, but lubricate your axle bearings on the rolling stock, the high pitched squeal of dry bearings ruins an otherwise great video with wonderful stack talk.
Nice layout, looks new. Very nice 1/13.7 scale train. Yes, i liked Accu's fully functional, not simulated Walschaerts valve gear, running great. Loved ur scratch built coaches: 1. Did u use styrene for the body? 2. And what about those clear no buckling window panes? R they real glass? 3. If real glass, what glue did u use to hold them up? I used 1mmT microscope glass for the live steam loco but Superglue couldn't stand the heat n fell off. But Gorilla Glue on brass cab (paint sanded off) has so far held well but hasn't done any glazing on coaches yet. The commercial coach panes r ugly w their thickness plastic lens like against the unprototypical thick window framing
@@Larry_Potter hey, thx 4 ur answrs. i'll try ur Acrylic shts. It's very hard to cut 1mm glass even w scouring it 1st. it always chips or break. Prototypical thin clear plastic sheets from groceries r NG. They're not flat, scratched, ...etc. Ur soln mayb the best. Great work on ur hi-end birch plywood.
Very nice video. Out door layout is good. How did you find the Ruby tender? It sold out years ago. I like how you put the bell on the sand dome. I had a Ruby years ago but sold it sadly. It runs well.
@@Larry_Potter what part of ohio did you move to I'm scioto county we only have two clubs in southern ohio for the garden railroad stuff the one in waverly at bristol village without a website and the cincinnati gcgrs as for the smoke it doesn't bother us much we use a wood stove for heating I'd like to see if I could start a annual steam up at edgewater airpark in Canton the flite test company model airpark and one during our horse show that moved from ashland ohio to hendersons arena in jackson county to see if I couldn't help split the cost of running the show soooo any time I find ohio live steam modelers I have to ask
