    Class A Climax How-to question

    C&S #70 In On30

    Gotta jog my memory as it was about 5 years ago when I did this but for the most part it is just a piece of PVC for the boiler, PSC detail parts and a Grandt Line Cab.....(thinking back I should have used a PSC Cab). The tender itself is just styrene shapped and rivet detail added to it. The...

    Class A Climax How-to question

    Ok gents, I will put something together. For the most part the only thing left is the cab. I finished everything else last night on the backhead. I just wanted to add some additional pipes, valves, etc, yada, yada yada. Not sure if it can be done with 3-rail but it is a very easy project which...

    Many thanks for the kind words. Clark I hadn't thought about a how-to but I took several pics as I did the fall and bridge. The water was the easy part! I will see what I can do for you.

    C&S #70 In On30

    Here is a bash from a Bachmann HO 2-8-0 that I did. For the most part, just the drive train was used. Made the boiler and tender, and used PSC detail parts for everything else. It was a project, but one I am glad I did. Hope you enjoy, Ken
