The tender was not built to LE drawings, and it's simpler than the typical LE tender, but it looks great.
The existing frame had a bad weld and a corner member cracked, so I've taken the body off. It needs a new frame, like that of a simple flat car frame, but I don't have time to do it. The body is made of wood, and it has a hinged cushion seat over the hidden aluminum tank.
This locomotive is a really neat little loco, and it’s about as close to completion as it gets. I have other fish to fry right now. You could have it running in about a week.
It’s in Southern California, and I’ll gladly show it to interested parties. I will be showing it at the Los Angeles Live Steamers Spring Meet, this next weekend.
$8000 takes it.
