Work and Events / Re: What If? Design Project: 1925-1940 2ft Diesel

In my personal opinion, If you wanted to go with an early diesel/gas mechanical design, I think a replica WWI Baldwin 50HP loco-tractor would be a great choice. These locomotives were sold all over the world after the war, and I'm honestly suprised that the Maine 2 footers never got any war surplus equipment. The locomotive could also be used to tell the story of trench railways, and their importance in the First World War.
