Kitbashing Bachmann 2-6-0 Alco into CNR

[sailormatlac]

Matt, regarding all the road names for the Bachmann 2-6-0, yes, there are all discrepancies. B&M did have 2-6-0s, bhut they all had slide valves. I think the Bachmann prototype, for GB&W in the 1920s, would be best (other than CN, where it does seem to have some correspondence) for short line and regional prototypes, though a little big for many short lines.

It is actually a small 2-6-0. The locomotive is only slightly larger than the Old-time MDC/Roundhouse/Athearn 2-6-0/2-8-0/4-4-0.

Have waited for a locomotive like the Bachmann Mogul for almost sixty years. Just bought two of them.

They are great.

@jwb: It's definitively a locomotive suited to represent 1910-1920 common practice. I do agree it would fit many short line that got them second hand. I should have taken a picture of it beside my IHC.

@Harold: Knowing you, I'm pretty sure you have some interesting kitbashing plans for them. What are you trying to do this time?
