I wanted an example of the Lone Star "Treble-o-Lectric" trains so bought the F7 units plus cars shown on an earlier post.
I thought I would stop at that but this appeared and I could not resist it.
Treble-o-Lectric was an early form of N scale on 9mm track to 2mm scale.
The motor is in the tender and uses a rubber band drive similar to early Athearn in the same way as the F7 previously shown.

Here is my part built Hunslet Quarry loco in 5" gauge live steam.
There is a preservation site about 5 miles from me which i believe holds the rights to the Hunslet name and can produce full size Quarry Hunslets to the original design to order.
This is called Statfold and often has open days when as many as 20 2 ft gauge locos including Mallets and Garratts can be seen in steam on the track.

Running my newly acquired Japan Government Railway C11 190 and the Showa Era Imperial train. The Showa Emperor was Hirohito who reigned from 1926 to 1989. When the Emperor was onboard, the flags in front of the locomotive would be unfurled and the chrysanthemum placard get placed on the locomotive and the Imperial carriage. The locomotive was decked out with a lot of silver and white lining as well as the green number boards. The C11 was just one of the many differing types of locomotives used.
