4-8-4 Royal Hudson?! Ummmm...... The Royal Hudsons were "Hudsons" witch would make them 4-6-4's not 4-8-4's :cry:. the only way to get one of those in N scale is to get a old con-cor 4-6-4, and a Del Prado Royal Hudson static model, and bash the heck out of the two untill they shell from the...

so I have been Busy for a wile now, and I thought I would post a few pics of a almost finished project. Enjoy! the guts

Nope I'm Sorry, I can't allow you to do that, as long as there is STEAM out there. here is my contrubution, Climax, V5.25 Now with a Decoder and headlight!

all I gotta say is wow! :D :D :D Very Impressive. I can't beleive that your trackwork is protypical! always boggles my mind to see what people will do with a little creativity

Hey everyone, I am looking for a GE 44 ton switcher shell that will fit over a modifyed Kato Critter chassis. I bought one about 6 months ago from a guy on E-bay, but he isn't offering any castings right now. so the big question is dose anyone have one that they would like to part with? thanks

Well Here is my progress so far, after a few days work. I'll tell you the tapered ends of the actuall molten steel vessel were a PAIN IN MY @$$

you know the Bottle Cars don't look too hard to build out of some styrine, and use MT Buckeye trucks, if I can get some good prototype pics and line drawings, I might be willing to take a crack at it, although, they really have no place on my layout.

Oops, your right, typo on my part. :thumb:

NORTHERN PACIFIC!!!!!! (that is if you are doing a mid-70's and later layout :) )

it is going to take alot more than just stripping and repainting to get that one, but I agree with canandian, start with the concor heavyweight buisness car or a coach.

well....... I have a atlas Classic RS-1 in SP&S black Scheme, and as far as I know, their is no drop in method for the decoder instlation, but IIRC, I think the motor is isolated from the frame by a plastic cradle, But I am not sure, overall I do remember that it will require either removing...

!!! i got a AB set of Kato PA's that are screaming for the Northern Pacific's Lowery (North Coast Limited) scheme. will you paint loco's I already own? and witch Decals sheets from witch Company would I need? BTW SEAHAWKS JUST WON!!!!! SEATTLE 21 DALLAS 20

so Just to show what I have in my head, here is a rendering of what I am trying to build.

Yep if I was Moddeling HO it would be a almost exactly what I want, wrong tanks, but close enough. but I am moddeling in N scale, so that pretty much leaves me with one option, build my own. :D

Hey everyone, shake the part boxes aagin, I need some help. I need 2 life like 0-6-0 "Little Joe" switchers, I am going to try to build a 2-6-6-2T for my logging line. the loco don't need to run, just be sound mechancly. Messenge me if you can Help! thanks

anything can be converted, it is just how much effort you want to put in to it. the older FA's with the big nasty hole in the pilots is a little difficult to cover, I would just get you sone this styrine, then bend it and shape it untill it fits with in the hole, then make the mesurements for...

I have a MDC 2-6-0 and it is awesome, once it gets broke in, it runs super smooth, and relieable. I love mine.

Hmmmm looks good, very BC Rail-esc.

Hello everyone, so call me crazy, but after the success of the latest climax, I decided to make another one, but this time, I am going to make everything except the Kato Critter chassis. anyways, I am out of the parts I need for the jack shafts, so time to shake that parts box! here is what I...
