Home-made brass castings!  This could have major implications for scratchbuilding steam locos.
One day, the 0-6-0 will be done, and something else will start.

... just sayin'   :)

Jason,
The mechanism, is that the 2002 version (before the latest run that featured DCC & Sound)? That tender does have all wheel pickup, correct?
Looks pretty smoooth.....  :)

Yes,  I took the drivers apart and quartered and used rubberized superglue to Prevent failure.  Yes the tender trucks and cut down frame are from a Bachman long candy tender
