Re: Postcard From England, Brecon Mountain RR #2 in the snow

Hey Olaf,
I just updated my spreadsheet comparing US and Brazil 2ft/60cm engines and the Porters No.6 (7913) & No.7(7914) delivered to the EFPP in April 1945 are actually more close to the WW&F No.6 Vol53pg256pdf164-2ftSRRL1916_10-18.25C18_dwg6Rd10sn44231 I could send you my spread sheet if you like.

You can see how I found EFPP No.6 in the shed in 2007, http://www.thorsteamworld.com/photos/pbg.asp?ID=5]Thorsteamworld EFPP No.6[/url], unfortunetly she was moved (rescued?!*) in 2011 and has been sitting outside since then. Sister No.7 is already beyond restoration since it was have under roof and dripping water on one side really didn't do her any good.

Currently the most active discussion/modeling of the EFPP is on the Facebook Group Núcleo de Ferreomodelismo estrada de ferro Perus-Pirapora, it hasn't operated in a few years but there is attempt #7 to gain new volunteers and start operating again, it is very frustrating.

Olaf, have you ever digitized your films or pictures from your trip to EFPP in 1978? How about Ron Johnson, could you put me in contact with him? I have been collecting pictures of visitors to the EFPP from around the world, I hope prepare another photo collection for the preservation group.

Olaf are you going to be in Colorado August 3-17, 2020? Have booked the flights and hotels for my son and I and we will DO all the narrow gauge centered around the CT&S 50th...
