Action at the roundhouse

Those Pacifics are great! Crack passenger engines when introduced in the early 1900s. Still going strong in the 1950s on freight and locals. My favourite wheel arrangement.

I know I've asked this before back at the old gauge, but what was the foundation used for the U-1-f 6060?



Some absolutely stunning power you got here either way!

Thanks! She is a beaut - I love all those spoked wheels, drivers, pilot, trailing! I have to say though, I do like the all-weather cab versions. Nothing says Canadian winter like all-weather cabs...
