N scale PRR Centipedes on the Erie?!

[Blake]

Yup!! I am custom painting a pair of Hallmark brass N scale PRR BH-50's for Arnie in NJ (he's the guy I did the NJ Custom Brass PRR T-1 for). 1 with the trainphone line and one without. This one is taking a test run on my Erie layout.

Blake, Did that thing actually negotiate the curves?

 

[Blake]

Believe it or not, yes it did. 11" radius none the less!!

 

[Ralph]

Ohhhhhhhhhhh, look at that!!! Wow! I've never seen a model of a BH-50 before. I'm amazed it got around an 11" curve! How many inches long is the loco? What a fantastic piece of Pennsy equipment!

It's almost 7" long....oh....ahh....the loco that is.

Nice work, Blake... I painted a pair in HO and WOW, what a giant!
