I've finished the Sunset models K-27 as number 461.
It has a Tsunami decoder installed.
I painted it with a green boiler just because....

Here's my collection of K-27's:

#452, 455, 460, 461 and 463.
One of these are not like the others though. As one isn't a brass engine.
Which one?
 
No Fair - Cannot see the numbers on all of them.
Taking a WAG here -- I'd have to say it's the one with the slide valves? (next to #461)

I'll guess the center one. Blackstone Model?

BTW - Are you a member of the D&RGW historical society and posting pictures on their facebook site with this loco? If not there is someone over there doing a very similar project.

Graff,

First class work mate and I'd have to "guess" it is the front one maybe? Have no idea why, it just looks a little different to the others.

No, it's not that one.
Yes, I shared some pics on the FB site.
I also had an article in the newsletter about 3D printing.
 
Nice guesswork.
Front to back:
#461 Sunset models
#460 Westside models
#452 Sunset models
#455 Westside models
And finally #463 Blackstone in plastic.
The #460 is the older version with long smokebox and slide valves.

Interesting, my Blackstone does not have a reverse headlight on the tender, nor a cinder grill on the stack. That is why I choose the #452 instead.
