Hi All,
I'm just starting an 0-10-0 steamer using BBB med size wheels. I was wondering
if anyone has some examples of BBB med wheels in use. I noticed Cale had an
0-6-0 steam switcher, Cale are those regular stud increments? Looks like yes.
I first notice that in order to get the spacing tight that 1/2 stud increments
are needed, but that sorta blows the connection rod alignment (I think). My
plan was to use BFBFB arrangement where B=blind, F=flanged.
Any comments would be great... There are a ton of great steam engines (and other
Train MOCs) out there, that I may have missed in my recent, not quite dark but
mostly cloudy age!
