This is the one from the Schurman Iron Ranch collection that sold back in 2019 after Alan Schurman sadly died that february. Buda 4 cyl gas engine with a Westinghouse compressor. Auctioned for an absolute song at only $1,732.50... very much hoping it went to a good home! Apparently the ranch also had a narrow gauge steam locomotive tucked away somewhere.
What model is that, the former Porcupine Paymaster Mine in Timmins Ontario Canada had two FLB? that hauled a huge wooden framed ore car from their #5 shaft to the mill about a mile to the south up to 1966 when the mine closed. One locomotive was only used, the other was a spare I assume. I was about 8 years old at the time and lived about a mile from the mine, and I was fascinated by this locomotive so much so that trains and mines have been a love of mine for over 50 years, thanks!
All you gotta do now is put it on some rails and let that thing roll!
Diminutive in size, but what they can pull is what counts! That's what Plymouth built them for!
Love the invisible tracks! Is this two foot gauge?
Super. 💙 T.E.N.
I don’t see any rails
This is surreal.

Ugh... Would have easily paid twice that for it! Looks like 2' gauge, right up my alley.
Where are the rails?

Looks like a DLH/6.
This is a Plymouth DLB 8 ton.
I need that locomotive in my life! Now only if I can convince my wife.
You should hook up a lawnmower to the back of that! The locomotive looks and sound great.
How many tons is the locomotive?
I believe these locomotives are rated at around 8 tons.
Same thing I'd like to know?
Yes it is on rails that get grown over after a while because that is the only thing they get used for.
I am looking for one these... Any thoughts on who has one for sale? Thanks, rbenson0803@gmail.com
Is that on rails or grass?
rails. they get grown over when they're not used
@@MinniMoRman i dont see any rails at all
Trust me they’re there 😂 just hiding under the grass
