Atlanta or Bust!

The truck is loaded, the trains are packed, everything is ready to roll. On to Atlanta!

Fury passes a battery of USCT training in artillery. The gun is an Alkem Scale Models kit. The figures
are 40mm from various suppliers.
It fits, just barely.  The passenger seat will have miscellaneous cargo.

Fury will be making its debut as a fully operational battery powered loco.



Stanton BPS and battery sit on top of the motor in the tender.

    How do you get civil war style 4-4-0s because I'm looking to get 3 for a project for my Model Rail Road.

      if you want O scale look at Schneider Model Trains. For HO scale look at Bachmann Models.
