While checking to see what I did with my kitbashed steam coach, l came upon a pile of old model RR mags, saved for their articles. One of those, Oct. 1968 MR, has a model of a tiny logging teakettle, Falk Lumber Co. #1. It was then in the Humboldt logging display at Eureka, Calif. Still there? That model was scratchbuilt in brass. I used a Marx #999 chassis for the steam coach but haven't found a shorter, smaller 3rail power train for this and other projects. Most 0-4-0 drivers are way too big. Walthers offered O kits of Sierra shorty pass. cars, but l think l have only seen an HO brass model of the Sierra combiation caboose #9. This car has been in movies. Anybody ever seen an O model, kit, brass?, for # 9? Dec. 1962 MR has plans for a SMALL WM coaling tower (50 ton), built by T W Snow Costruction. Just the top three on the stack...
