Found a new locomotive I HAVE to build for my layout…!
Hmmm…what gauge would this be?[:D]
This wouldn’t be that “Ruskie” with the nuclear thing-ma-jiggie, that someone was talking about several months ago, would it?
Maybe Horizon will make it R-T-R (riches-to-ruin) and in HO!
Yes, yes! I want one. Maybe two or three! One in G and two in HO. Live steam, too. When is it going to be available? I have some friends who may also want one or two each. That makes at least 10 that we could sell – who is going to make it for us? Could this be the horny engine that someone asked about a few months ago?
Sure, and who’s gonna take a screw driver and open it up to install a decoder???
You might want to check with your shop crew first.

That’s some “cow catcher”. Wonder what kind of cows are in that area where it operates?
It’s probably an African design. So they needed an elephant catcher [swg] I take it an N scale version will need 11" or larger curves? [:p]
Cool! An 0-16-0 with about 120" drivers- Hope it has an automatic stoker.
I think BLI is doing this one- bad news is the suggested retail of $29,999.95
I think its a 8-16-8 operating on the Mordor & Pacific RR and the catcher is an Oliphant-catcher…[;)]
Clicking on the photo enlarges it…[8D] be an awesome hauler on any layout but I’d hate to see how much reworking the clearances would require…
I think they are going to use that locomotive in Lord of the Rings IV.

Umm…that’s a fantasy Locomotive, so don’t expect it to be on any shelves in the near future.
Does it come with a real working Nuclear Reactor?
Whatever it is, I need it for helper service on my Yuba Pass. One question, though. Will I have to enlarge my tunnels?
Nah, just run it at full speed into your tunnel portals…that nasty looking front end will do the rest…[:D]

Just noticed the “guy” standing in the lower center. That is one HUGH loco.
The land version of “20,000 Leagues Under the Sea”.
Is that the passenger or frieght version of the loco?
<Wonder what the caboose looks like?> [;)]
That’s an idea. It’s huge so we can have a new scale called HU. What code track though? [:D]
G guage track in HO scale?
Vic - I studied that for a long time - it is so gruesome, it is interesting.
Now I will go back home and tell the others to look!

Will it come in UP colors?
Jugding by the scale of the person next to the track, the G scale version wouldn’t fit in your house.[:0][;)]
Oh my God, who let the cat out??? [swg] Vic did post this on the Trains forum too.
