Home What's New Building the Daylight Daylight Tender Observation Car Engine Stand Gondolas Gauge Bell Ringer Air Pump Gas Switcher Taffy Puller

 

Over the past several years, I've been busy working on various projects that I thought may be of interest to other large scale model railroading enthusiasts.

One of the most challenging project was Building the Daylight.  It is a live steam locomotive in 1/8 scale (7-1/2" gauge). The wheel arrangement is 4-8-4 which puts it in the Northern class.

 

 
 
 
 
           
 
Here's a current picture  (2017) of the Engine and Tender
 
 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Four passenger cars have been built.  Three are regular passenger cars (pictured below) with one observation car. 

 

 

 

    Info on how the Observation Car was made. 

 

 

 

Some other things that may be of interest are a Gas Switcher, Gondolas, Air pumps and a few other things. 

 

Check out the What's New section to see what was recently done.
