I thought I smelled some coal smoke in the request..
..but you should be building a H Class, not a Wabash Mogul.. although they
did make it into Quincy..
I plan to get into 1.6" Live Steam but most likely will do a VO-1000. I
don't have any machining skills and don't think I can get a steam engine
done. it will be an accomplishment to get a battery-powered diesel and a
waycar at that!

Subject: [CBQ] Re: 4-8-4 Drawings
Nothing CB&Q-related right now (but I am building an Allen mogul in 7.5"
gauge). I'm working on a degree in mechanical engineering, and I've loved
trains since I was 4. I'm interested in the technical aspect of steam, so I
like to collect blueprints of the locomotives I admire. I also volunteer at
the Colorado Railroad Museum on the weekends, so about once a week, I get to
stand in the shadow of the 5629 in all her mainline glory. The library at
the museum has boxes of random CB&Q drawings - some for the O-5 4-8-4's -
and I was wondering if there were any more floating around out there.
