Lastest addition to the fleet

RGS Ten-wheeler #25



This gives me two of the three ten-wheelers, (20 & 25) two of the three consolidations (40 & 42) and all four K27s that were on the property.
The person I bought it from also included an original R.H. Kindig photo of her on one of the bridges at west durango in 1938.

There's a prototype for everything.
If you can't make it perfect, make it adjustable.
DCC is not plug-n-play.

Sweet! What's the make?

I have the PSC second-run RGS 25:

Scott,

You inspired me to take ol' 25 out for a spin during my JFTRM therapy session today!

Dave,

Mine is also the second run PSC version.  I was hesitant to spend the money (I got a fair price but the seller didn't give it away) but they come up for sale so rarely I didn't feel I could let this one go by.  Yours sure looks nice on the Ophir bridge.  The Ten-wheelers were always my favorite RGS engines. (other than #74)
