tender is from the TA's ESE. 
still needs a lot of detail and alot better textue. anyone wanna tackle texturing this beast or get me some photos?
loco is 75' tender will be 47' witch will bring the total leignth to a whopping 122'!
it's fun time!

(First screen shots of my Steam Turbine try #3)" I hate to tell you this, but the model has a minor flaw. <Maybe u already know this>. In the middle, the 2 wheels <the inner ones> should be right next to each other, no gap.Great model Thanks,

the spacing may not be totaly right, but I do know that there is a space between 2nd and 3rd drivers. BTW do you have some more/better pictures? this is the only one I have.
thanks

Then you scroll down to Page11 thru Page15. Then you will see what I mean about. The (Baby) Penn Turbine 6-8-6 info and picture is in Page12. I just said 11-15 because I want to have all these Penn Locos made for MSTS. Thanks, ADAM14 year old brain baby Remove | Alert Edit | Reply | Reply With Quote | Top

(First screen shots of my Steam Turbine try #3)" One piece of info you can use from the web page in above thread is the drivers are 68" diameter. That would help you to scale the rest of your engine based on prrportion to that info.

Absent any true drawings of the locomotive, these two should make your effort more close to prototype.Mike
