Gentlemen,
I'm looking for detail photos of D&RGW #278, or any similar C-16. Mainly just of the running gear for now; Frame, Side Rods, Valve Motion, Cylinders, Front Bumper, Rear Bumper, Boiler Bearers, Break Cylinder, Break Hangers, Break Shoes, Rocker Box, Reverse Shaft...
If any of you have some good photos please E-mail me with a list, I will pay the development costs, shipping, etc. for copies of the photos.
A friend has fallen in love with the #278 to the point of already gathering castings for a 2.5” scale, 7.5” gauge live steam model. I have drawings, but I would like to photographically double check them with the real thing.
Thank you for your time,
Curtis F.
