Hi guys, I am fiddling with some ideas for a small switching layout. Just some cars (Aristo, USA trains) and a small locomotive like the GE diesel from Piko. I read it would be in 1/24 scale. This would mean the loco is too big for cars in 1/29 scale. I could not found a photo of this little critter together with a Aristo box car. So can anybody provide help? Thank you very much.
Not sure how to find a photograph that specific. Hopefully someone will have an idea for you. So you have me curious about this little critter. I Googled it. Interesting looking engine.
Here in Germany we had and still have some types of small critters called "Kleinlokomotive". You can find many interesting informations and photos on https://www.deutsche-kleinloks.de/ : As you can see height of the diesel is about 2/3 of car. That's the impression I would like to show with the Piko GE diesel. A prototype picture from http://rrclub.umn.edu/photo-galleries/pillsbury-mill: The switching layout I have in mind could be based on the ideas of Lance Mindheim. I would like to test his approach for switching operations.
