Dear Mr. Bachmann:

Here is another suggestion for an Indy replacement:

Vulcan No. 2 of Pacific Coast RR

very similar to the Indy but better looking with the boiler far lower and closer to the pilot deck

My other request is for a WW&F #10

Could you build the WW&F # 10 in 1:20.3 scale to run on Gauge 0 track ?

Thank you

Norman

Doug,

"Indy" is the name folks have given to Bachmann's Industrial Mogul.



This is an Indy modified with a Banta wood cab.  The Banta kit also came with coal boards for the tender. 

The Indy is a nice little locomotive, that with just a small amount of added weight  will handle a cut of a few cars or up to three J&S coaches.

This is a short video of the CD&StL's Indy with a box car and three extended length J&S coaches in tow.
