Time for an update..

The FdT is getting some new power!



 'El Bestia" as known to the locals, is about 1/2 finished.. It's the first one. I plan to add at least 1 or 2 more for the line. It rides on an Atlas N scale chassis and will have sound. The huge hump in the back will hold the speaker. I'll post up more as I get it finished.

I'm also working on three more gondolas, as shown.

I started with a Bachmann N scale gondola and scratchbuilt new ends and floor for it. The grabs and steps are hand made and it rides on MDC N scale trucks. The pipe load was something I cobbled together.
