This is my latest large scale project. A 2.5" scale, 7.5" gauge, live steam coal burner, similar to Mich Cal #2 but not an exact copy.

The 2 cylinder engine should be done in a month or so. I just ordered the plumbing supplies. I hope to have it completed by fall of this year.

A friend of the family built a 3" scale (15" gauge) shay in his basement. Except he found out carrying stuff one part at a time through the kitchen and down the stairs is quite a different animal than getting a whole locomotive back out again.

His wife doesn't want him to dig up the yard and knock a hole in the wall to get it out, either.
