Jim - BEAUTIFUL modeling, but the date couldn't be June 1958.  CB&Q Class M-3 2-10-2 type No. 6308 was sold for scrap in March 1954.  In fact, the entire roster of Class M-3 locomotives were sold for scrap during 1953 and 1954, Plus your No. 6308 had an Elesco feed water heated, not a Worthington as modeled. See attached image of No. 6308. Nonetheless, very well done! - Louis

As a follow-up to my HO scale Colorado & Southern Ry cab ride video, I've created an operations-oriented video entitled "Turning a Steam Locomotive":

This video follows the Denver Rice Yard Engine Foreman as he readies an incoming (leased CB&Q)  2-10-2 steam engine for its next assignment.  I think you can see why sound and animation make this a popular job during operating sessions.

It's a bit different than most model railroad videos, and I hope you enjoy it.

Thanks.
