I recently finished building a model of a 250 Ton Bucyrus-Erie steam crane, and was able to take a quick test video on the weekend out on the layout. It's a Galline kit...with modifications to make it fully operational. :)
I like it, the way I see it, any good model suits me just fine and/or tickles my fancy.
I like it! B) B)
BTW it would be perfect to change out one of the axles on the SD40-2.

RhB - ganz weit im Westen von Canada ca. '69 bis '75. Als die RhB noch vorwiegend grün und wenig(er) verschandelt war. Ausserdem alles nur Adhäsionsbetrieb
Good idea doing an axle fix on the big diesel--once I get some slings made I'll give it a try. I haven't figured out its weak point yet...but I think the way the winches are geared with all that pulley reduction there would be a bit of a slowdown then a big BOOM!!!, with plastic going everywhere. 😆
