Live Steam Locomotive Makeover - 4.75" Ga. Little Engines 0-4-0 Narrow Gauge Conversion

Turning an old Little Engines 4.75" gauge 0-4-0 into a 1.5" scale narrow gauge Hawaiian beauty and then running it on rails for the first time in almost 40 years at Maricopa Live Steamers.
Special thanks to Nate's Vintage Trains and adamgswanson for the shots of me running it - go subscribe to them!

Hey Alex! Just found your channel. How'd you get into model engines like this? Also, what's the story behind the Hawaiian flags? I've lived in Hawaii for the last few years and I love reading about the OR&L company. Love the content!

I've been into the live steam hobby for about 17 years now - got interested in it by visiting live steam tracks from a very young age as a public passenger. This engine is freelance Hawaiian narrow gauge, specifically the Ahukini Terminal and Railway Co. which was a 30" gauge operation on the eastern shores of Kauai. I've spent a lot of time there on the islands in the last few years for work projects and Hawaiian narrow gauge has always intrigued me.
