STANDARD GAUGE HOWARD LOCO

New acquisition: in the style of Howard and Voltamp/Boucher, this is a scratch built set in Standard gauge.

Jim,

That's really something! Any chance for some close-up photos of the cars?

Beautiful metalwork. Hope you get the chance to give us the back story on this scratchbuilt set. Was it built recently or back in the day? Are the dumping cars functional?

Whoever built it had a nice sense of proportion and craftsmanship. Thanks for sharing!
