GT 3406 on the 490 Manifest Freight to Portland


First time running. Had to rebuild the transmission (and thus the entire model) at the show this morning. 10V power supply, XL motor in the engine at 3:5.

About this blog

This blog chronicles my adventures of modelling the Central Vermont Railway during the late 1940s in 1:48 scale using LEGO bricks. Some content will be around the history of the railroad, the models, construction techniques, or other interesting brick or model railways.
