Thanks for starting this week's thread again Bruce---I really enjoy your contributions.Back on the Leetown Division another steamer (S1D Mikado #3377) is spotted on a double-headed freight about to tackle the Stoney Creek inclne.

Here is a seldom modeled detail... It's the oiler on the crosshead of BLW #26 in the roundhouse in Scranton PA. I doubt that Cal-scale will ever produce this one.

You're right, Steve; that one would be hard to do in brass.
Cal-Scale (and PSC, too) both offer mechanical lubricators like the one shown above and just behind the valve chest of this modified 0-8-0:



There should also be a link to the valve gear, which would provide the mechanical force, but I didn't bother adding it. :oops:
