Howdy Compadre,

enclosed some photo of my last work : an Arizona Copper Co Porter locomotive in 1:35 scale!
I started this project on Forney B'mann, my Porter is a freelanced ,mixes of the ACCO #2 and #3, adapting some details characteristic of these engines....

Some details of construction on the french US Forum: http://us.leforum.eu/t6718-THE-ARIZONA-COPPER-COMPANY-LTD-CORONADO-RR.htm
In the future this Porter will run on 1 or 2 modules of the Acme Copper Co.

Nice work!

Beautiful!

I like it  ;) 

Possibly your best locomotive conversion ever. -- Russ

Very nice job Lloyd... the antiqued BW photo is particularly convincing... well done.

Really nice bash you've done there, Lloyd!  Great use of the Forney ... it's well suited for 1:35 conversion ... and yours is a great example.  Also like the display base and figures.  ;)  -- Dallas

Thanks for all!
A special thanks to Finescale RR ( March 2004) with the great article of Mallory Hope Ferrell on The Coronado RR with locomotives plans, and to Verne Niner who gided to me some CD photos with many  détails of Coronado engine!
Without that I will not have been able to make this Porter!

All the pictures are great but the silhouette picture is unique! Great shot: Any possibility of an SBS of the construction?

Did you know millions of trees are planted worldwide because squirrels forget where they hide their nuts!

@Mr Potato Head - well .. guess that's why we don't see trees on this forum .. nuts are in plain view.  ;D

Lloyd, beautiful work!  You got the cab and proportions right on the mark, and I especially like the subtle weathering of water scale on the tank sides.  Superb.  Glad the CDs helped out!

Ed !
Did you see that squirrel run across home plate last night during the baseball game, at Busch Stadium? See the poor little things are looking for there nuts!

The EPA has now withdrawn its warning that New Jersey residents should eat squirrels no more than twice a week.

WOW. Great work! I ve been working on one in 1/48 scale, but never finished it yet. This is just amazing, I might start mine up again.

Thanks for sharing
