This would make a phenomenal host for an engine swap.
B18? B20? K20/24? IDK, just throwing idea out there.
Gold and silver are supposed to be my back up plan when the economy goes shit up, I sold a bunch when silver prices were nearing $100 an ounce and im kicking myself for not selling more.
Should've sold my fucking gold too because that shits crashing hard. Hedge against inflation my fucking ass.
Iron Mountain Railroad Light Mikado, No.104.
This unit is modified from an Athearn Genesis USRA Light Mikado. Ive outfitted it with brass detail parts, painted it, and replaced the tender with an oil tender from an ATSF Class 4000.
The Genesis Mikado is a superb runner, it can crawl like no other. The tender is a brass unit that weighs about as much as the locomotive itself lol.
I think all of the IMRR locomotives will eventually be weathered, I have a few scrap parts that I want to practice with before I try it on a locomotive though.
The current steam roster if the IMRR consists thus far of the following;
A USRA 4-8-2 Heavy Mountain
A USRA 4-6-2 Heavy Pacific
And a modified USRA 2-8-2 Mikado
I plan on adding some non-USRA designs to the roster, likely in the form of earlier smaller motive power (Consolidations, Moguls, Decapods, etc). I have a custom 0-8-0 that im working on that I think would be a good fit as well, its a non-standard design too.
I get that I've cultivated a very niche following because of my interest in working on guns, but damn, almost no one gives a shit about any of my other hobbies.
Iron Mountain Railroad 4-6-2 Heavy Pacific.
(WIP)
Still a bit of work to be done. I need to source some more detail parts, touch up some paint, wire up a front and rear light, decals, etc.
