OK, only idiots don't change their mind. After giving it a lot of thoughts and after getting very interesting prototype informations from Doctorwayne, I decided to shift the project toward modelling Grand Trunk Railway #719, a 2-8-0 built in Schenectady in 1907.
This prototype is also closer to Bachmann Consolidation. And a big plus, it has a Russian iron boiler jacket, something I've been tempted to do. Lots of challenge, but I feel it will be more rewarding. However, I'm not giving up on the CNoR bash.
Pictures to come soon, the boiler was stripped of all unnecessary details.

Proudly modelling Quebec Railway Light & Power Company since 1997.
