Here are the promised pics of the Scientific Toys locomotive given to me by my dad after some slight modifications.



Above: A somewhat close-up that shows someof the limited modification and cosmetic touch-ups of N&MRR Railroad Locomotive 12, the City of Two Trees. The Caboose is MOW caboose 50.



Above: The City of Two Trees idles near Two Trees, Texas. The Locomotive was purchased and donated to the N&MRR. Its primary purpose is to move produce to the Warehouses ar Two Trees and pull a limited passenger run once a week.

The one you found on e-bay is superior to mine since that one is remote controlled. It has passed my range, in terms of money. It is already at the sale price of a full new set. Now, if I could just find such a new set.

Nice pics Joe, I've got VC Betts brother - must be his twin - sat in front of my pc. More sunshine in Two Trees, that's for sure.

Thank you Rene,

I try to imagine what it might be like to see the trains from a "scale" perspective. Your comments mean alot to me, as do everyone's.

Have a very good day,

Hi Capt Carrales
That is a nice looking locomotive battery powered i assume.
I need something like that in an 0-4-0 any ideas
All you need now is a clockwork one and a live steamer and you have the full set[swg]
keep your eyes open for a mecano reversable mech with key and there is the start of a loco thats just before you ask[:D]
Not to be taken to seriously i hear the clockwork boys can get pretty ***ed serious on operations and god help you if you run out of spring befor reaching the depot
regards John
