Hello Folks!
At the ending of last year friends of mine incited me to join the FREMO, especially the South West Division. So i did, but all my rolling stock was of eastern prototype, no doubt this will be misplaced on a module arrangement of Western Roads.
The result was the purchase of an Mikado of AT&SF prototype:
A used model of an AT&SF Class 3160 2-8-2. Model was made by Samhongsa and imported by Sunset. And definitely not made on Mondays
Not quite cheap, but a really bargain in the price range of an DCC-ready Athearn Genesis Diesel.
Here just out of the box immediately after arrival.
The tender as delivered with coal bunker.
This was also included. The oil bunker and the additional sand dome was clear, but the two brass angles :?:
Until now i have no idea for what they are, what they represent or were to mount.
So, that was as purchased. This engine will ready made for operational sessions with DCC.
