Kevin ...
Am I correct ... that tender is an IHC 4-4-0 American tender? It has a delicious Taylor overall appearance ... I'll have to keep my eye open (well, maybe both eyes -- they're probably not abundant these days!) Taylor Tenders are us in Camelback land! And Taylor Trucks, too.
You're off to a nice start. I can see vestiges of Varney lineage in the boiler lines and a little SP in the cab configuration. But then, I can't be sure ... Varney was a long time ago, memory fades and it took me a while to realize that S.P. and Espee were the same animal. :oops:
Ten-Wheelers are cool little dudes! They go about their day unnoticed and overshadowed by Atlantics, Pacifics, Berkshires and Mountains, with only one more pair of pony wheels than the lowly Peddler Mogul. But cool little dudes, all the same! I'll enjoy this build!
