    New engine on the DAV&P.

    This is a Spectrum / Bachman anniversary 4-6-0. It has been weathered and detailed. Some of the highlights are the crew, tools and real coal that have been added. A second loco # 6 was also added. She has less weathering because she is aside to the passenger service. Note the front coupler. The cow catcher was removed, cut down and a working coupler was inserted in the center of the cowcatcher. Then the new assembly was attached to the polite / pony truck. Now the coupler stays center between the rails even on sharp curves. This has been done on most of the DAV&P engines, so we can pull or push cars.

    She's definitely seen some time in service. I can almost smell the odor of coal smoke.

    :D
