The original was a 30" gauge that was re-gauged to 2 feet. It ran at Edaville RR in MA where I had the chance to operate it several years ago. With the closure of Edaville, it went back to Maine. As the MLM shop is literally down the tracks from the WW&F Railway, it's been filling in hauling trains for the WW&F. This model started as a LGB locomotive and the new cab and tender were built from scratch.
