Worked for me, but took quite a while to open and populate all the photos.

Loads for me and darned if I do not remember those three. Got to run Ben's loco up at PVLS one year in my distant memory.

One of the original 3 has been seen running around PLS in the past few years

Great. Little locos you could stick in a station wagon or pickup and have more fun than a barrel of monkeys.
Too many things going on to bother listing them.

Loaded fine for me! Lots of information there as well.

Bill is correct about the Reading A5a live steamers. They fire well and pull like rhinoceros.
We've had three running at once on the Silver Lake & Ossippee Railroad and another three at Finger Lakes.
For several years now, I have been trying to rally up a Reading A5a gathering. Nothing yet, but hope remains.

If you have one which is not yet pictures on Ed's website, please send him a photo.

Is this the same basic dimensions as the Mercer camelback, with 2” bore X 3” stroke cylinders?

I have tried to make contact without any response, is this a part time venture? I think having a website you would have a phone # contact as well?
