[quote]QUOTE: Originally posted by Sask_Tinplater I searched and found pictures of the engine you're talking about on the net. This is actually a fireless locomotive. Fireless locomotives only worked for industries such as factories, mines, etc. and never real railroads. The reason for this was because fireless engines don't have a firebox to build up steam like a regular steam engine. They instead take in excess steam from the industries they serve to run them. To find out everything you could ever want to know about fireless engines go to www.nrhs.com/web_exclusives/fireless_cooker/ . It's a real shame what horrible shape this engine is in. It angers me to see beautiful trains left to deteriorate like that. [/quote] Mitchell [:)] [:)] [:)] Once again you have saved the day and came through with flying colors. [:)] Thanks for the link. I have saved it in my favorites to look further into it this weeken. Great Job, again, THANKS.
