Pere Marquette #1225
Post Mod Gallery
Berkshire type (2-8-4)
Built in 8-wide
I’ve totally overhauled my design for the #1225 - I’ve replaced plates with
tiles, redesigned the lead truck, lengthened and redesigned the tender,
curved the roof of the cab (blatently copied from Ross and John Neal’s Polar
Express design), changed the smokestack design (stolen from Ben Beneke’s
design), to name a few. To me it looks like an entirely different MOC.

I really love what you have done with this loco it gives a real impression of
speed and power - I think it is simply its sheer size. (the others are great too
but this is my favourite).
Fantastic

| (...) Thanks! It's my favorite, too. I think the fact it being smooth and shiney also helps toward the overall effect. I'm not a huge fan of studlessness, but a little goes a long way. Thanks so much for the reply! --Tony (18 years ago, 16-Mar-07, to lugnet.trains, lugnet.general, FTX)

| I wasn't able to finish them 100% in time for the recent TexLUG meeting, but my Texas State Railroad steam locomotives are finally done. I've also updated my other two steam engine MOCs since last Lugnet saw them, so I took pictures of them as well. (...) (18 years ago, 11-Mar-07, to lugnet.trains, lugnet.general, FTX) !
