This is a Cherry Valley 0-6-0 Tank engine I built , I think it is pretty well detailed. I did leave a few things for the rivet counters! Always try to see that I leave them something.

Well that half done Chevy sure was not what I meant to post -- really something for the Rivet guys!! Here is what I meant to post. This tank engine was built on a Mantua -Tyco chassis I found in a box of junk, I was looking thru the Locomotive-cyclopedia one night and saw the plans for this engine. I dug the 0-6-0 out and tested it to see if it would run ----MAN DID IT--- Like a scalded cat --pretty typical of a Tyco! First thing I
needed was to build a 2 to 1 reduction transmission . Rivet guys alert , there is a rear step missing and the headlight is not on yet either!!

Just about any resin kit for a car has all the details that would be on that particular model available for the builder to apply. I just love these style kits.

Here's a Westerfield Keystone Coal and Coke hopper I recently completed.
