Derailed model

July 16, 2006 04:40PM
Yeah, Ed, I remember that! I do not remember the models jumping out at me as "contest quality". With some heavy duty kitbashing maybe one of Bachman's On30 moguls could make a passable model of a UV&P engine.
Those Baldwin moguls were unique with three very tall domes. I am not aware of what reason they had to have so much sand and a high steam dome to boot. I assume the UV&P had some steep spurs around Jerome as the grade to the ATSF connection above Prescott was gradual. When the UV&P was closed in 1920, most of the engines (by my recollection) went to the Kentwood and Eastern, a Louisiana swamp road that had a big appetite for oddball narrow gauge engines nobody else wanted. My "Verde Valley R.R.s" booklet is not manifesting itself to me this afternoon ( I am SHOCKED I can't find it) or I would have some more specific facts.
