Dear Mr. Bachmann:

Walt Disney purchased a saddle tank loco PINE CREEK .

This PINE CREEK prototype loco was of the same style model loco as your current non spectrum saddle tank loco which uses the same smoke box as the INDY.

The 4-4-0 steam & sand domes, stack and headlamp mounted onto the INDY boiler, less the existing centre steam dome, powered by the saddle tank loco drive unit to haul the INDY tender would produce a model very similar to the Disneyland Railroad #4 Ernest S Marsh loco.

Opinions from the hobbyists. Would this be a desireable model ?



Thank you
