Handmade Model of a PRR S2 #6200 Steam Turbine Locomotive

I found these videos on YouTube of a handmade 1/32 scale model of PRR S2 #6200 6-8-6 direct-drive steam turbine locomotive. Created by Mr. Werner Jeggli. Note that the model itself is also powered by a steam turbine!

Under construction in 2017, test run clips.

Running on the track.

More updates.

I found these videos on YouTube of a handmade O gauge model of PRR S2 #6200 6-8-6 direct-drive steam turbine locomotive. Created by Mr. Werner Jeggli. Note that the model itself is also powered by a steam turbine!

 

It is 1 gauge, not O.  The scale is 1/32.

It is a marvelous item, and thanks for sharing.
