The "Terry Paul" is a former
"Chattanooga Choo-Choo" purchased at Costco. Tender has been repainted and renamed. |
Sam's Club "Casey Jones"
Bachmann Set renamed
"Prescott Canyon".
Engine name changed for grandson
"Jeffrey Todd" |
The "Eric Warren" started life as a
"Silverton Flyer". After some painting, it was changed to the "Prescott Canyon Southern". The chassis has been converted to a Barry's Big Trains" 4-6-0 drive and will operate with a Reed's R/C unit or an Aristo-Craft Train Engineer. The cow catcher has been replaced with a small snowplow for clearing the track in the Prescott winters...
Most of the locomotives can be controlled
with the Train Engineer. |
The Holiday Train is pulled
by the wood burning Bachmann Ten Wheeler from the "White Christmas" set. Wood load in the tender hides the 12 volt Gel Cell battery powering it. |
The Aristo-Craft slopeback tender and
0-4-0 Porter have been kitbashed to become an 0-4-0 road switcher w/tender. Saddle tanks removed, tender lowered, repainted and renamed "Ol Tagalong. The engine's been renamed "Miss Diane" |
Each of the Porters have been
renamed from the original "BETSY" to my daughters names. The orginal "Clementine Mining Company" name changed to "Prescott Canyon Mining Company". |
The "Kathyrn Ann" followed by the "Tracey Lynn"

Then it happened....
After the Queen Mary "Big Train Show"
in June 2001, an Aristo-Craft RS-3 was
added. Modernization was inevitable. No
renaming was done, just converted it
battery power and added the figures
