Looks good hope to see a Jointed version for branches and old lines. Looking forward to more.

Did up the jointbars. We decided on four bolts instead of six for these.

Very good !
Interesting and new winter version.
Good idea.

 

[trainman7616]

New engine coming in a few days? Keep an eye out.

 

[STLSF4003]

New loco you say?

That wouldn't happen to be that 2-10-2 you've been working on would it

 

[trainman7616]

Nah nah. I meant for the I.R.M project. The 2-10-2 is unrelated to this though.

Oh my god lol

 

[generalman]

Hot pink and with lots of sparkles! :hehe:

As sad as it is I actually fooled somebody with this one...

 

[trainman7616]

Jokes aside.


To do a proper Illinois Railway Museum. We needed a proper Frisco 1630 Decapod. So Ive started work on it.

 

[nicky9499]

"Started". :hehe:

 

[STLSF4003]

Good call with making a Russian decapod for the route!

Though...just for the hell of it, would you be willing to add ARN for those who would like to use this engine out side of the IRM?

 

[trainman7616]

I dont plan for this engine to be operational. I hate steam animation more than anything so its just gonna be a static object.

 

[STLSF4003]

Fare enough, And besides bdaneal is already making a Russian Dec anyways.

 

[petrama25]

I have just gotten the DEM done, so we will be able to continue progress on the route. So far the route stretches from Chicago Union Station and goes up as far as Belvidere. We are planning on including the Metra Electric and South Shore at some point in the future. More updates and pics to come.

 

[petrama25]

A small update for tonight.

WOW. That EF-4 looks awesome, Petrama!

 

[MeowRailroad]

I assume you heard that IRM was acquiring an E33? Great job on the EF4!
