I had to do a double-take when I saw this - even though I've seen it before! That's just too cool, at least for a one time event. And saves modelers a small sum when purchasing a brass model - they're all R-T-R. I can see this with a PC badge.

You posted the same, exact photo in 2009....

Looks like a life size brass locomotive, to bad it was lost.

Great shot. We were just wondering the other day about why none of these has been restored. They are very modern and several are in existence. A good fan trip engine.

1:1 scale brass locomotive.

Unless I cannot count, is this not a 4-8-4. I know where to buy a smoke unit for my HO models, but where do you get a steam generator in that scale?

Diggin' the gold almost as much as the Gyralite! Excellent photo!

It almost looks like this picture was taken on a model railroad with a brass engine... That's super cool to see that this was a real thing.
