    Hi all!
    I have just completed a brass locomotive build for a client.
    It is an HO scale model of the Richmond built ten wheeler "Albo".
    The original locomotive:

    It was built in 1900 for the Swedish railroad "Ystad-Eslöfs järnvägar".
    The model, which has a chassi from a Bachmann ten wheeler, was a really tricky build.
    That was mostly due to the fact that there is just that photo that is available, and the building manual left a lot to own interpretation....
    Here are the pics of the finished model:

    I am really satisfied how it turned out though.

    Nice. Quite a handsome locomotive. The pilot/plow is interesting.
