N scale Pennsy S-1 Build

Having built the T-1, there are just too many similarities not to build an S-1.
So "Clear the rights of way", because here comes the S-1!!  Man its long!!!!

I must say... I like the looks of the de-shrouded engine, I think I'll do both versions.

Here's a Clerihew about Ed. K.

Ed Kapucinski
Every night, he plants a new tree.
But mention his law
and you've pulled your last straw!

Alternate version:
Ed Kapucinski
Every night, he plants a new tree.
He asks excitedly "Did you say Ménage à Trois?"
No, I said "Ed's Law."

I have one made by Oriental back in the 80's. It is a fantastic running model and needs a 24" min radius. The mold done here looks good, could make a nice model.

Had a couple of hours to build a frame today. The cylinder on top of the two engines is a weight. All of the drivers used are damaged axel tube drivers I've collected from friends.  Of course, the damaged axels do not matter since its tender drive...... another advantage :D
