The Home Machinist!

Hello, I am looking to purchase full drawings (electronic) to build a smaller Live Steam Locomotive. Something about the size of 4-4-0 / 2-6-0 or similar.

Thanks!

I presume you are referring to a smaller 1.5" scale 7.5" gauge locomotive?

Yes that is correct. Thanks for the clarification.

Russell Stewart of Georgetown PA purchased all of the LE small scales stuff, then promptly locked it all up. I may have a almost set of 2-6-0 (really a 0-6-0 set, you just add a front truck). Let me look.

Rumor on the street is that it was repo'd by the bank, but who knows.

I would be very interested in that.

If that is true, then it might go for auction. Where did you hear this? I would be very interested.

An O-4-0 Porter, Maybe 2 1/2”?

P.M.?

Did I miss something on Little Engines. I have not spoke with Mike in years but this is on his web site concerning the American, Mogul and Crab.

"Attention all Little Engines American, Baldwin Mogul and Crab owners.

After much thought I have decided to sell off the Patterns, Parts, Drawings and rights to these 3 locomotives. In my efforts to keep growing it was time for some changes and rather than just discontinue them I sold them to a new supplier to keep them available. Jesse Banning of Banning locomotive Works, LLC, Las Vegas, NV is the new owner of them.

Jesse was here last week and we crated everything up and shipped it to his shop. He is set up and is getting needed castings made. I hope everyone give Jesse the same support they gave to me with their needs for parts.

This will allow me to continue to expand some areas of LE and continue to re-tool parts that need new patterns and develop new items better suited to my course.

Jesse can be reached at banninglocomotiveworks.com, and at Facebook at facebook.com/Banning-Locomotive-Works.

Thanks to all the support of my customers Little Engines today is once again a strong solid company offering 100's of different parts and accessories to the Live Steam and Outdoor Railroad hobby and will continue to bring old things back and new items to offer."

I think that refers to the larger scale stuff. Mike wasn't doing the small scale locomotives.

I'm under the impression that the OP is asking about smaller 7.5" gauge locomotives, not small scales. The LE American/Mogul/Crab would fall under that category.
