On30 is something I have been really gaining an interest in. I have found little infomation so far on scratchbuilding engines from an HO chassis so this was really informative for me to see. I checked out your blog from your signature and it looks like there is bunch of other info on it I may enjoy. Thank you for posting this.

Very nicely done, and inspired by one of my favourite prototypes, too!

Another interesting build! Nicely done.
By the way, It's very comforting to know that you make mistakes too!

I'm just a dude with a bad back having a lot of fun with model trains, and finally building a layout!
That is really good.

When I see 4-6-4 I think high speed passenger trains. This was completely different.
Great job overcoming the problems you had during assembly and testing. I have never had a project go perfect from beginning to end, and it is good to see others need to figure out diffculties like I do.
The slide show style of the presentation was fine for me.

Living the dream.
I've just finished my latest On30 scratchbuild, of a 4-6-4 tank engine. Here's a video showing how I did it:
