Tramp, the tender is entirely sprung as well!! The whistle is killer!! I've never heard an actual Niagara but it sounds similar to a Hudson.

Frank, No, My layout is too odd for any public type showing! A large portion of it would make Wicked Wanda's house look like a Sunday School. :shock: :lol:

Tramp, What kind of a guy would sneak out of bed at 4 AM to go run his trains before going to work? :wink:

Jon, that hat is you. No doubt about it.

Any unusual features on the engine? How's the size compared to the Berk?

Tramp, the Niagara is pretty massive next to the Berk! I'll do some side by sides this weekend. Don't get me wrong about the Berk though. It has its own unique character. especially the piping detail.Wow!!

Jon, is the tender lettering centered? It's hard to tell in the photos.

Beer good! Niagara good!

Wow, look at how much smaller the Berk is. You should see the Berk and the Blue Ridge 2-6-6-6. If I ever build a pike, I'm doing Maine 2-footer as well. I like the contrast of size.
