Re: 1.6" Brill Trolley Mine and Dads new to us project.
Looks like nobody else has mentioned it. The motor you pictured looks very much like the ones that the original West Valley Live Steamers Baldwin-Westinghouse electric project used. They were slightly long for the wheel spacing, and had to be shortened up a bit for use.

Re: Willow Creek & Orchard Valley Railroad
HI there, Looks like you are enjoying the railroad building hobby. I am very pleased that your wife likes to participate. It is so much more fun when you can share a hobby. I would love to see some more detail on your ballast car. What a good idea. Also, do you have 3 of the Baldwin-Westinghouse ele...

Re: Erskine Tramway
Hi Mike, Looks like you are hauling small passengers now. How are ticket sales going? Or, are all the passengers afforded passes? Nice job on the trackwork. What's next on the list of projects? I noticed from the video that I am not the only one gaining in age or girth, hmmm. Spring switches and aut...

Re: Erskine Tramway
Mike, Yup, we are in Prescott Valley, AZ. Elevation at the house is just 10' short of 5000. Been kinda hunkered down with this virus thing, but i still get out somewhere most days. Wife says I can't stay still. She's probably right. Wishing it was a bit warmer so I would feel a little more comfortab...

Re: Erskine Tramway
Good spring Mike, I enjoyed the virtual ride on the Erskine Tramway. Now, you need to incorporate some videos of you and your wife riding the tram. This is a special request from those of us who knew you way back when and haven't seen you in all those years. I am actually working on a small battery ...

Re: Erskine Tramway
Mike,
Looks like a good day. Now that you know the track is good for it, is a steamer in the works? Maybe an Atlantic like R&GNs. Just saying.
Anyway, good to see you back on the forum

Re: Erskine Tramway
Hey there Mike, I've been lurking on your pages for some time without commenting. How much space do you have up there? Obviously enough for a true point to point railroad. I wish I could say I have been accomplishing things on my 2.5 acres, but the older I get the slower I get. Seems like I want to ...

Re: 1" Little Engines Pacific Drawings
Hi John, Thanks for the response. Yes, drawing #17A is "Quadrant", and 19 is "tender". I could use the #18 drawing to fill in the set. The last drawing I have is #19A "Buffer". Are there any more after that? I will be happy to pay for #18 and any that follow #19A. Just ...

1" Little Engines Pacific Drawings
I have a 1" scale LE Pacific loco project. Looking over the drawings I find #18 missing and I am not sure what the last drawing should be. Can anyone supply a copy of #18 and tell me what the lst few drawings should be.
Thanks,
Don Bauer
Thanks,
