Hello all

You might enjoy seeing a Southern Pacific Class C Consolidation built by Louis Rupprecht, President of the Century Model Railroad Club, Los Angeles, CA ...based on the Southern Pacific Railroad Central Station.. . Station closed in 1939 ...torn down in 1956 ...so no idea how long that club was allowed to remain there .

Chassis has unique suspension found on Ken Henry engines ...Henry sold chassis ...so Louis May have purchased the chassis and built the balance.

Running with outside third rail sweeps .

Please see link for video

Cheers Carey
