Hello!
I’m a huge railroad enthusiast, model railroader, and model train collector. I love fixing model trains and machines. I also really like stop motion, filmmaking, and art.

Unfortunately not, it’s too fragile and is now in too many pieces, and it will continue to disintegrate over time

Got to fix the one I originally had and got a cool box though.

It breaks as easy as a thin baked cracker, and the amount of cracks in it was actually interesting to look at. It’s a good thing I had no idea intention of using this shell in the first place.

Just a luck of the pick, they were only two Canadian Pacific A units for sale and no B units so I got what I could

To my knowledge I’m unsure as I got the lot slightly used in a box. It does match many similar designs of hand derrick cranes out there.

Named Scratch just for the fact it’s a scratch build that’s gone through 3 different designs that all looked completely different, and a lot of the parts came from spares and broken scratched up bits.

The front was built up with plastic card and a few spare bits since I had no brass parts that could be used for this one. Still looks pretty good

51 runs pretty well on dcc, but doesn’t like to run on dc
