I was fortunate enough to recently get my hands on Big Ben Bricks new Medium Drivers, so I set out to build a Ten Wheeler based off of the Grapevine Railroad’s “Puffy”. “Lady” is fully track ready, easily negotiating turns and points with working pistons.

She uses some SNOT I’ve never used before, and makes better use of my floating pilot truck design than my previous MOCs. While pictured above without a motor, she’s ready to accept one and get things going at a moment’s notice, as seen here at NETLTC’s recent train show (before she was given her stickers and flags):

Comments and criticism welcome.

(...) Wow 'Lady' looks great Tony. As I work in Grapevine (right next to tracks too) I see Ol' Puffy almost daily and 'Lady' is a wonderful tribute to her. You really did her justice. Simply great!!! (17 years ago, 21-Nov-07, to lugnet.trains, lugnet.general, FTX)
