G&D #13 "Emma" Organic Locomotive on the D&GRN, by Kenichi Matsumoto - a tribute to John Allen's Gorre & Daphetid

Kenichi Matsumoto:

Here, I send you my G&D #13 "Emma" once John Allen kept as the organic switcher in his yard. My Emma has come from a rubber figure. I have modified her lowering the waist and the knee with a knife , ACC and a small amount of modeling paste.

 

Mr. Charles Getz who once had visited the actual G&D has advised me that the actual Emma had a totally dull green body. He says my Emma would be her younger days. I also believe so, because Allen's Emma was more glamorous. I am seeking the chance that I can find such a stegosaur. The box car which my Emma is pulling is the same Central Valley model John had used in his picture with his Emma.
