If you go to the web site it has this info you ask. Ken Schroder made the patterns. Yes there is one complete engine built form these castings. I have sold castings all over for these, but never a full set. John Tokar has bought dome casting and other parts from me for his engine. I can not get picture loaded here yet. Computer challenge at best way to put it. Working on it soon.

Full kit for 2-6-2 is around 4,300.00 plus shipping. 1100 lbs and 109 castings. More bang for the buck here on this engine. One of or the biggest engine on 7 1/2" rail. 14" dia boiler. Cylinder castings are 68 lbs before shipping. 4" bore but best to be 3 3/4" using model T Ford rings. Stroke is 6" and drivers 11 3/4" dia. Can be made in different wheel arrangements. Lucky #7 or a Prairie 2-6-2 engine. 2-4-4 also.
