Ash pit at Johnson City

Dean Smith
Engine 5 prepares to drop her ashes after a hard day's work. Since I know of no photos or even of a good description of the ash facilities on the ET, I decided to freelance this scene. The water column is next. Someday, I'll even add ballast.

Dean,
It looks convincing to me. Nicely done. BTW...what is the source of loco #5? Mark Lewis Narrow gauge modeling in N.C.

Very nice. Just realized there is a sooty “chimney sweep” with the all important broom in the very realistic pit. Those steamers sure required a big work force. Doc Tom

Mark,
Thanks! I obtained the locomotive years ago from
Les Walker. I believe she is a Keystone Locomotive Works Rio Grande C-18 #318
Samhongsa import from Korea. She was painted and lettered when I got her. I
added a Digitrax decoder many years ago. She has always run well and usually
works Cranberry during operating sessions. The domes and bell aren’t correct,
but I’ve never worried about that. Perhaps someday I’ll add sound.

Dean, A fine looking loco none the less. Sound? Why mess with success, when you are pleased with the way it runs now. Mark Lewis
