Re: [CBQ] Re: 2-6-2 Prairie

I have a brass 2-6-2 which is a model of the earlier R-1 series, which I bought several years ago but have not done anything with yet.   However, I notice that Caboose Hobbies has on their website a Fujiyama NP T-1 2-6-2 painted and lettered for CB&Q as #156.   I don't know how closely that might suffice for a CB&Q 2-6-2, although it has the slanted cylinders which NP bought from Alco in about 1904-5.   I am familiar with these strange cylinders because D&SL bought two identical 4-6-0s, #300-301, to NP S-3s, of which I have a PFM model I am detailing to D&SL #300.

As my memory serves me (remember I need to have my address on my watch band) what Bob has indicated is what Roger Miller would use to create a 2-6-2 Prairie.  In fact, I have one of the brass models that Roger created, real nice job.
