Assembling Henry

This is the assembly process for an On30 4-6-0 locomotive. The mechanism is the Bachmann HO "Henry" from the Thomas the Tank Engine line, and the body and pilot are from the Bachmann On30 Mogul. The idea was from Mike Miller, as detailed and done much more effectively in Carsten's 2008 On30 Annual.

Quite a cleaver conversion! I might try this to one of my on30 moguls.

Good eye, the boiler and cab are from the Mogul. I was a bit disappointed with the mechanism, and I'm considering creating another 4-6-0 using the Athearn 2-6-0 as a start-point. The mechanism is excellent, and the proportions work out about right.

I wonder how many Thomas fans watched this and got sad that it wasnt the thomas character

If u love Bachmann Henry and have one u should be able to tell that he used some parts of Henry just look at the way the wheels move

Who cares thats it not Henry! Thats one heck of a nice tenwheeler! Is the boiler, smokebox and cab from a bachmann mogul?

1:18 = motor housing or frame. It's all sitting on the chassis. 8:45 It's better than "not too bad"...And it hasn't broken in yet. Fuggedaboudit !
