Custom Marx Mercury | O Gauge Railroading On Line Forum

Steve "Papa" EastmanOGR Forum Member

In other posts I have shown a custom McKeen Motorcar and a Pacific Electric Blimp made for me by my friend Bob Daley. This is a project he did for himself using 2 Marx CV's, a Marx 333 motor, a Scout type tender and lots of Bondo, sanding and imagination..

Wow! Thats great work. Is the motor from a 333?

Did you use a lionel plastic tender part for the tender detail?

As I stated, this was a friends project, not mine. Yes he used a 333 motor and chassis. I believe the tender top is from a Marx plastic tender.

Bob is quite creative and a professional artist.
