    Anyone have any pictures or know of any pictures of the B&O's EL-3's, EL-4's, EL-6's, and the B&O's LL-1's???? I have looked through the archives in the Historical Society web site and other archives and only a few are good enough for modeling work.. YES guys I'm at it again!

    Watash, I changed thoughts on modeling the EE-2 (2-8-8-2) And decided on this attempt being the Y6b N&W is way different to the EE-2's. And since I changed my mind. I have aquired another 2-8-8-2, Y6b by Rivarossi. So I decided to model one as an El-3, EL-4, or an EL-6 (2-8-8-0) The EL-6 was aquired from SAL and was a 2-8-8-2 and the B&O rebuilt them to 2-8-8-0's. And the other one to model it an LL-1 (0-8-8-0). I have alittle retooling to do to the pilot and front cylinders but thats not that bad as retooling the whole loco to what the actually EE-2's were. So I'm going to do a different aproach and make a articulated switcher and a EL class... All by the B&O.....

    Anyone know of any of these loco's I've named and has one or something please contact me at:

    yellowstone10@hotmail.com

    And i'll be in touch with you as soon as possible. Anyone have any and can scan them for me, THANKS and just post them here. Anyone that has and would concider photo copying them from me I'd pay for the copies and the shipping to me! THANKS again.... In advanced... :D

    Watash, you seem to come up with some good ones.. Let me know if you have or know of anything on these loco's... :cool:

    Sorry John, I don't have but the two photos of B&O articulated's. The one on page 11 with the guy standing on the front, (Railfanning), and Old Maude 0-6-6-0. I did run across a good photo of my personal favorite, the Southern Pacific's AC-9 semi-streamlined Yellowstone, 2-8-8-4.

    Watash,
    Thats ok I sure do appreciate it though!!!! I have the one you sent to me and copied it out on my printer to add to my photo archive for the shop. Other then that the pictures don't go no futher.. I get them for my use. But Thanks... Looks like I stumbled onto another hard one to do and get photo's of..... Oh well, I'll take my time and make a good detailed model after all anyway so... No big rush on my stuff..... I have all the time in the world for that......Shop comes first anyway... :D

    John,

    The Denver Public Library has some photos. Do a search for "Baltimore and Ohio 0-8-8-0". These pictures can be purchased in any size up to 40"x50", though they aren't cheap (a 5"x7" is $12).
