Locomotive models
In 2021 I started collecting OO gauge rolling stock with a view to building a small layout based on a wagon works. Here are some pics of
the locomotives. The period being modelled is the early 1970s, pre-TOPS. All locos are DCC with sound, and have been weathered and renumbered
where necessary. Kadee couplings have been fitted to facilitate hands-off uncoupling.
