RESTORATION - C&O 2-6-6-6 Allegheny - Akane-Gem HO Brass Locomotive
I have just started restoring this Akane C&O 2-6-6-6 for my friend Sean. This is a series of photos showing how it was received (in parts), going through drive modifications and finally, paint and reassembly - This video shows a side view of the drive, with it running at medium speed. All appears to align well and it runs great at this point. It will be disassembled now, so the frame can be painted along with the remaining model parts.
