December 2024 Work Reports

I asked that question when the design was presented. The cars can be turned. They do have a plan of how to adapt to a turned car, but are focusing on the install now.

Speaking of voice  - have you considered taking #10's whistle

and a compressor?

If they will allow it? Not to do it too often but opening, noon & closing.

Once an hour maybe too much to ask. Mine does not get loud with only

3/8 air hose.

Something to ask about

We are planning on bringing the whistle but our booth is inside and would be quite loud. If I knew if edaville or mng was bringing monson 3 or edaville 11 down I'd ask to put it on that, like NESCO did with 470s whistle.

Like I said it could be throttled down.

The one I have is from a Traction/Thrasher Engine

When I use 70# it is not too loud - Of coarse at that pressure

it does not give its true sound.

How about the bell and face plate As I recall that's what Maine Narrow Gauge did when they were rebuilding #7

Hi Dan,

I assume you've already explored YouTube and other social media sites, but here's a quick list of YouTube videos I found just in case.  You might want to check with Joe Fox, since several are his videos.

Thanks Bill and Mike, however some of these I can use others I can not. I was hoping some people would have some videos, like that I have taken of 9, but with 10. Bryce did suggest running the old train time videos which I guess is something but I was more hoping for runby shots. There seems to be a lot of cab ride stuff and inside the car stuff but not much presenting the locomotive.

Ed, I mention in my first post that we are taking the Bell, number plate and the Headlight
