Although I'm sure there are probably hundreds of these out there already running in MSTS, I'm making my own because I'm bored with programming that 1218 into the simulator for the time being. Modeling is much more fun . Anyway, here's a screenshot of it, for anyone who cares!

RE: Y class N&W loco under construction

Jeez, man, I don't know. See, I'm really not a train buff or anything, I just think steam locomotives look awesome, and N&W is really the only railroad I know about (and I use the word "know" loosely. A family memeber of mine works for NS in Roanoke, where a lot (well, just 2 so far) of these locomotives I'm modeling were built, so I have access to drawings and dimension diagrams. What I'm getting at is that I don't even know what a K4 is, so I could try by looking at pictures and stuff, but I don't know how it would turn out.

Sounds like we're going to have to give you a history lesson on steam. Maybe you will find yourself getting into it a little rather than just thinking they look cool.Kevin Bush,

I will have my hand on the throttle of a K-36 very soon Mon Freunds!

Actually, I don't think I've seen even *one* 2-8-8-2 developed for MSTS. It looks like you're on to another winner. Thanks for the screenshot.Henry

RE: Y class N&W loco under construction

Yeah, I think it should be shorter or something. It's hard to get it just right with no exact dimensions. I'm not done with it yet, however, so maybe I can get that fixed.
