Ok, so I'm not much of a history buff, and I don't know the complete history of trains,... far from it. I just like to play with them.[:D] Given this hobby of playing with trains, and my fondness of table top fantasy gaming, I decided to build a new prop for my gaming table. I want to build a dwarven steam train. I did a search on the idea, and the only thing I really found linked me to this forum, where someone else posted an idea of doing a diorama of a fantasy setting train. I liked the idea of using an old train as a base, and remembered a picture I saw of an old engine, with one giant wheel on one side (like a paddle boat almost), which I can only assume was the drive wheel. So the engine was something like a 2-1-4 or some such If anyone has any idea about where I may have seen this train, or any leads to where I might find more leads I'd definatly appriciate it. Or even any tips or ideas on how to build the train and its trailers. It doesn't need to be powered, (though that could be cool too). Any feedback would be greatly appriciated!
