October 2024 - day 20


This is another 1/35th scale narrow gauge railway engine - a battery mechanical that I drew from an old photo image I found on the internet. My intention is to scratch build it on a HO-OO Hornby 'Smokey Joe' chassis and run it on HO-OO Peco 'Crazy Track' which represents a two foot or 600mm narrow gauge  scale/gauge.

Once again, I am not pretending that this is a detailed and scaled drawing, but close enough for me and my purposes.

I already have a spare mechanism and with slight alteration, I have to widen the body slightly, it should easily hide an unmodified chassis. I would expect the model to be constructed from plastic card - my preferred material with a 1/35th scale driver donated from some military figure.
