Hi Tuhr, Thanks for the info on Railmaster. I will contact him and see what he has to say. I've also contacted Roger Chivers in England on the same subject. I'm asking for input from both of them

Thanks for the help. I will contact him about making a frame, drivers and valve gear. I can handle the rest of the engine and tender. If I can get him excited about this project, we will finally

I would suggest you talk with John Agnew of Railmaster Imports. He produces in Sn3 and has quite a few kits under his belt. I model the ET&WNC in Sn3 and have a couple of his 2-8-0 kits. (Any other

I would try Backwoods Minitures - address in the Gaz - he didn't have a a e-mail address last time. He's made some climaxes in Sn3, Garrats, etc.from 9mm on up. Great looking stuff. Bob

My first knee jerk reaction would be to make a pledge, with a date that it will be sent, and then wait until that date to send it. Keeping up with it any other way would be a nightmare. On the other

Great idea Curtis! Ken ---------- the goal.

Members of the ET&WNC Historical Society received a request to donate to the restoration of Combine 15. The sheet also listed different categories of recognition based on the amount of donation. I

Over this past weekend, a friend and I traveled to Johnson City in beautiful weather and saw the Nr 214 diesel recently pruchased by the ET. It is gorgeous!! Southern green and white with gold

Ill take a shot at an answer. Perhaps Johnny Graybeal can correct me. Perhaps during the timeframe you mentioned, the 2-8-0 engines no longer were being used in the Johnson City yard or in any other
