Mike: Thank you for posting the links to the WWI video. The first one appears to be all US railways - I wonder if the first part is training images, then about mid-way through the footage gets really interesting. I like the way the tracks thread through the town ruins. In one of the shots, you can really see the loco rock back and forth on the rough track - really neat! ![]() At Fort Benning, Georgia, the infantry museum there has this Davenport 2-6-2 and passenger car on display. I think these were remnants from base equipment used to train operating troops, perhaps, but also to transport soldiers to training areas. I am not certain if this ran up to WWII or not. ![]() That little passenger car would sure look good in 35n2! ![]() I'm not sure what you'd use for the locomotive, but the running gear is very small proportioned, so maybe there's a convenient 0-6-0 mechanism. I'm looking forward to see what you come up with! Keith
