Another productive evening with New Tracks Modeling playing in the background. They had a good presentation of the Wandering Spruce narrated by Kevin Spady.

Figure is Aspen Models and is needing a shovel.

Found some coal down at the Old L&N tipple down the street.

Deck is made from plastic brass and .020 hinge pin. I coated the bottom with JB Weld for texture. Diamond plate seems to be used 1st about 1930. Camelbacks predated depression era I suppose.

Thanks.

You've captured the 'feel' of a Camelback, based on all the period photos I've seen.

Thank Curt and Dave! One day I'm going to get the Wootten boiler right...one day.
