Tub and loco


Tub and loco

I was right. The coal tubs are a good size for the smaller On30 locomotives. The diminutive "Gas Mechanical" still towers over the wagon as I think it should.

The coupling heights may be an issue in the future, the knuckle on the wagon is a couple of MM lower than the loco. The couple and uncouple OK on the test track but seeing if this works on a real layout will have to wait until I build one !

    surely 'lower' rather than 'lover'?

  2. Good point. Mind you I do want some coupling to be going on...
