Another Yankee NG'er project: C16>>>C60

Post by CaptainBazza »

Another Yankee NG'er project.....a re-engineered conversion of the C16 Consolidation (2-8-0) back to it's original class, the C60. Maybe not everyone's cuppa, but a certain Eagle-eyed Atlantic Cousin has taken a shine to it....infact he's cracking the whip. Takes all sorts, I guess, in our strange hobby. :roll:

If there's one thing I've learned over the years it's that the obvious is hardly ever bleedin' obvious. So it goes with the tricky lamp lit, snow sheilded headlight saga for the C60....but at last, "By Jove, he's got it!"

PS I'll have to post the pic later. Forgot to upload it to Atomic Album. :oops:
