I remember visiting Jim Konas once in ~1965. The 2-10-4s were 3 versions of
CGW prototype, one model of each. He had Nord locos, more than anyone I had
seen at the time. Unbelievable; I was just beginning to appreciate the venue,
and probably missed more than I absorbed at the time. I wonder what became of
all of what he had. .DJE

It is hard to see but in the far side of the garden track is one of Ben
Carpenter's REX docksides. The rest are all unknowns to me. Are a couple of
them originally NORD products? I know Jim built TEXAN types using both sheet
steel, (magnetic) and brass sheet (non-magentic) He was way ahead of the game
when these photos were taken in the mid 1960's.
