NWSL Baldwin 70 ton Logging 2-8-2

High quality Japanese brass work. Crafted by Toby, the same highly regarded Japanese builder who made many PFM Crowns.

Great condition, though some tarnish due to age. Very little running time, which shows in clean wheel tires. Just lubricated and tested. Tracks well and throttles down to a very slow speed, but needs some run-in for the very best performance.

A very tight and well constructed mechanism, with quite reasonable superstructure detail for the time. The engine features spoked lead and trailing wheels, good plastic brake hangers, and very nice valve gear. The well done oil tender is equipped with high quality small archbar trucks. 

The front pilot is missing the air hose, but it wasn't a very good part anyway and looks better without it. No couplers are mounted, but that can be done if desired.

Original box, packing and data sheet in fine condition.  (2 lbs shipping weight)

Lawrence Lines cast brass GP-7/9

Assembled kit with grabirons, lift rings, Kemtron Dynamic Brake blister,  Calscale 5-chime horn, cab sunshades, hand brake lever, and air tank piping added. 

Converted to C&O GP-9 by filling off 4 sets of louvers under cab, and adding various brass details. All brass parts, except for soft steel, pre-formed, grab irons, axles and motor parts. Blackened wheels.

All original Lindsey motor parts are included. The engine is wired and complete, but the motor doesn't turn under power. Just a slight twitch. The drive assembly needs to be disassembled, for gear and bearing adjustment and tuning. This is an early and fragile power unit. They look great, but need TLC to even run, and then put out very little power. Par for the course with all Lindsey 4 wheel power units.

Unpainted - original brass, but tarnished to a rich brown !
