"One-of-a-Kind "

[MountainMan]

Pete thank you for this thread! I just have to say that turning a Connie into a Mallet is an amazing piece of engineering, something I wouldn't even try to tackle.

I did a shoe box challenge on an other forum sometime back and I did mine in O scale just to try something new. This would be On18 (runs on N scale track). I don't claim there was anything like this in real life and it was not all that hard when compared to your Mallet but for some reason I just liked it and even though I tossed out the shoe box a long time ago I have hung unto the loco. This was a mining layout and an internal combustion loco would never have been used in a mine but what the heck!

I'm sure a lot of you also have a one-of-a-kind hanging around so let's see em'

Any special reason for the cammo pattern? Or did it just "rust" that way?
