Jock The New Engine

The British Railway 2-6-0 engine is in the past now.  I'm taking on a new challenge!  Archibald The Mainland Engine from The Railways Of Sodor - Episode 7: The Visitor!  Here's a picture of what he looks like.



Since i'm low on cash, i'm making him out of an old Hogwarts Express engine that I have, I'm using some stuff from the Wooden Railway Thomas toys for him as well.  If anyone would like to see the episode (parts 1 and 2), it's on youtube.  Also, if anyone would like to make any suggestions, please feel free to do so!
Jock is my favorite engine now, and in my Thomas world, he works on the Skarloey Railway with Frank, Skarloey, Rheneas, etc. since he & Frank are the only Small Railway engines ever made in Ertl diecast.

why dont you give it a number? it would help to identify it  ;) you could put it under the cab like the real railroads  :)

Hello!
For a number, I would sugest "51946." I chose this number because James is number 5 of the NWR and 1946 is the year her was first introduced.
For a logo on the tender, I propose this:

Thanks for your time!  ;D

That's right, this board used to be the 2-6-0 Project board, but i turned it into the Archibald Project board.

Archibald is a Royal Scot 4-6-0 in BR Green. He is nothing like a GWR Hall. I suggest you get one of these:



Just get the EXACT loco only and stick a gordon face on it.

Like I said, i'm low on cash, so I don't have the money to buy something like that from Europe since I live in the USA.
