NYC Mallet steam engine S scale gauge scratch built & American Flyer

[@davelewandoski4292]

Great looking locomotive. Fascinating seeing what guys were able to put together.

It’s great seeing the old kit bashed and scratch built items running - there was recently an older S gauge duplex sold on eBay someone picked up. The y don’t hit the market often I think those that have them tend to hold on to them. Nice engine you got there……

Thanks Leonard! I'll tell you, one really has to admire the craftsmanship and especially the patience of the scratchbuilders of models like this. I'm not sure I could do it myself!

[@jimmelchin1531]

Unique...I like this one ! 👍

Hi Leonard, i think one of life's simple pleasures is watching the wheels and motion on this type of locomotive, there's something special about steam locomotives on the go, but these are double the pleasure.👍

Looks like 2 Hudsons or Pacifics gave up their lives for driving mechanisms. Nice build! I wish I was this good at fabricating.

[@railroadmillion681]

We all do

[@vintage-model-trains]

No other engines were harmed this was all scratch-built chassis

[@Philip-t2j]

@@vintage-model-trains MAMA MIA...that's some work. Good job! I would have taken the easier route if I even tried. I can't build anything.

That’s super neat! Thanks for sharing these unusual and rare pieces

[@stephenrickjr.7519]

Very interesting!

[@kevinmacomber1336]

Great craftsmanship.

[@willamettevalleyAFtrains]

Always enjoy seeing kit bashed S gauge. I'm surprised at how well the Pitman motor works along with the AF rear motor.
