For those of you enjoying 5148 here's a shot of my Fowler 0-6-2 in 5 inch Gauge (2 1/2" to foot). I've built two of these (a friend's got the other one). Between us we have about a dozen wagons or more which, when fully loaded with gravel, weigh around three tons. One engine can handle it on a 1.5% grade but you sure have to get it hot! Not bad for 2 inch cylinders!

Nice looking little lokie Ross, cute as a bug's ear as my Mother used to say! I like the larger engines, but only have one 2-1/2" scale. Others all 1-1/2".
