Massachusetts' Two Footers / Re: WW&F #10 at Pleasure Island
« on: August 24, 2020, 01:43:57 PM »
Yes Bill Robie posted it.  He is one on the trustees at the Colorado Railroad Museum.  Last Saturday he told me these were all 16 mm which is why they look so good!  He worked on the train crew there and at Edaville.  I lived in Massachusetts and visited Pleasure Island several times in the early 1960s.  This was the first steam train I ever rode!  Of course I didn't know anything about Maine two foot gauge or anything about gauge at all back then!

Bob, I didn't know that.  Is it the rusting boiler I saw years ago in Phillips somewhere?

It does look similar but seems to be a bit fatter or shorter.
