Thank you for your comment. The layout is located in our local hobby shop (Just Trains) in Concord CA. We are thankful the owner allows us access to have operating sessions . Mr. Frost has a wonderful collection of models that run beautifully.
Homemade from styrene sheet, strip and rods. They are fully functional, up and down, side to side. It took me a long time to figure out how I was going to do it. I have done 10 so far, using jigs so they all march. Sounds like you are bothered by the big gap between engine and tender also?
@@MrFrost-bi1br Absolutely! Amazing job they look fantastic. Even better they're fully operational. I have a buddy who's got one and I keep trying to convince him to make a diaphragm.
I Love It when People Have Steam And Diesels on their Layout.

Agreed! Thank you!

It would be nice if 225, 227 or 229 was restored to operation tho i would like to see the 227 at the lake superior railroad museum
Yes, it would be nice!
@@MrFrost-bi1br ik the cass scene Railroad has DM&IR 228s whistle I think
I don't know, but it wouldn't sound the same unless they could come up with 240 psi.@@Snoapyfluff
We can only hope!
How were the diaphragms done on 222?

There is a great photo on page 5 of "Locomotives of the DM&IR" by Franklin King that I used for a guide.@@deansrailyard1029
You spent a couple of minutes on that layout!
Where are you living now Paul do you live in the bay area still?
Who’s asking? If you are the bank or law enforcement I can’t say .
