Plymouth Ten-Tonner

Haven't posted in a while, but thought I would display some pictures of my latest adventure. It's Plymouth 10-Ton critter that was owned by the Palmetto Brick Company in South Carolina (they had about six of them). They were operating with link-and-pin couplers until at least 2005! In my world, the J&RG loved the outlines of the little critter and built one for themselves in 30" gauge instead of the 36" of the brick company. I've been working on it for about 3 months now. It is entirely scratchbuilt except for the NBW castings and the MV lens on the headlight. I counted about 375 separate sheet, strip, and tubular styrene parts plus a few pieces of brass bar stock. It sits on top of a NWSL Stanton drive. DCC powered.

This is J&RG #17 crossing Frijoles Creek.

Here's a link to an original photo of the prototype:
