Grand Trunk 713 (WIP)


So I'm back to building after a 2-month hiatus. Built in 1900, and assigned to Island Pond, VT, this little mogul worked the GT NE line until 1954 when it was selected to haul the Canadian National museum train across Canada. From the mid 40s until 1954, it was the primary power on the 7.5 mile long Lewiston Branch mixed train. It is preserved at Exporail outside of Montreal. The design is about 75% complete. The chassis is undergoing testing and the results are very promising.
