OK, as promised, here are some pix. These first three are of the loco that is going to be restored by my LP's (little people). The loco will be three quarters sticking out of a single bay engine shed with the CSLS (that's Carringbush Steam Locomotive Society) LPs welding and painting. General restoration type activities. The line the loco will be sitting on will be electrically isolated from the rest of the layout and have plenty of weeds growing through it. It takes a long time and money for a volunteer group like the CSLS to restore an old 0-3-0 steamer.
A previous effort by the CSLS is located in Chase public gardens. People can admire the "old world" steam train and learn a bit of history on the information plaque in front of it.
Both of these Locos used to run around my Father's layout 30 odd years ago. I think it's a nice "tip of the hat" to him and the fun we had all those years ago.
If anyone can identify either of these, I'd appreciate a message or comment. Thanks.
