hi all, sorry for not getting any new screenies up, we had a thunderstorm here last night. It knocked out the power grid for around 4 hours, and I
do say it was one heck of a show seeing the lightining shooting across the sky,and hitting the nearby hills. Darn, now the weeds are going to grow some more, that means weeding again! I'll have some new screenies for you tonight to ponder over. Untill then, have a good one.-Robert-:wave:
P.S. On the reskinning of the K-11 4-6-2, I was thinking that I made a mistake or two, so with my wondering ways, I came across this website
http://atsf.railfan.net/atsfstea.html to check out if ATSF used the pacific type locomotivs--and they did! So upon looking at pictures of preserved
ATSF steam locomotives, there was no red cab roof, and there was no No.19, there for I'll fix it so it's right. I,m still checking to see if it was K-11 type that they used or if it was a diffrent type pacific used, because the drivers (Wheels) are the Boxpok type. Here's some photos I've found to show the Driving wheels on these locomotives.

This last photo here tells me something diffrrent. this locomotive is the former Santa Fe 1316, now restored and running on the Texas State Railroad, note that the drivers are spoked wheels. Could this one be a K-11 Pacific? -Robert-
