Summer Steam

[Shawn]

I finally got to run some trains after some severe thunderstorms moved in late in the day. A friend of mine came over with his kitbashed roundhouse live steamer (I forget what roundhouse model it was after the kitbash). While we waited for the boiler to heat up I ran my Climax. We had the roundhouse pull some of my rolling stock. The lighting was nbot great because of clouds and late in the evening.

It's the Fowler isn't it? Looks a good job too and perfect on your railroad. Good photos despite the dying light.

Any more details on what he did to the loco?
I can spot a new front buffer beam/pilot, bell instead of a sand dome, is there a running plate along the boiler too?
I have an urge for a tender fowler with a similar appearence.
