Price is right, and shipping fair. I wonder where Art gets all this stuff?

Re: Rare Hudson 0-6-0
Price is right. I even have a trailing truck here...and some bits.
Tender...now I'm gonna have to look in my files.
Thin brass wrapper.....thin due to distortion around rivets....no.
Now there mayhaps a year they did that, but ain't it A&S casting?
(Looked, yes, casting....)
Tender frame doesn't look right.
(Looked...it's not. Steps wrong, frame wrong, TRUCKS wrong)
Motor, whilst a field wound open frame...something wrong with mounts.
Spring drive couplings are straight.
When did SC have BoxPox drivers?
Ashpan.....thought mine was cast....not soldered up. Worm...all my SC and all I have seen have had Phenolic worm gears. Not concave brass. Again.....have to look that up.
What in the world are the holes in the bottom of the smokebox? Saddle support mount?
So, $45 for something that ain't....not enough bits to make it one.....don't know.
