Mining Mogul

[RRR]

Mr. Bmann,
In what scale is the little minning mogul? It sure looks small next to the other locomotives.
Thanks

Dear RRR,
It has a large enough cab to be 1:20.3, but it's small enough to work fine in 1:22.5.
Banta Model Works makes a nice wood cab for it as well.
Have fun!

Dear RRR,

Couldn't find it.  Got a part no.?  Thanks.

Best Wishes,

The Baldwin Industrial 2-6-0 part numbers were 81696, 81697, 81698, 81699.  They are no longer in production.  Might find a dealer that still has one.  If there were more part numbers, Loco Bill can fill that in.



This is the Mogul with the Banta cab kit.  The kit is wood, laser cut, and came with coal boards for the tender.

JD got all the numbers for the industrial mogul. They were first introduced in 2002.  They were poor sellers, and dealers were practically giving them away,  because of this Bachmann did not make additional runs.  As soon as the word got out that there would be no more, the screams for more began, and the price went up.

Happy railroading.

Sorry, I know that as "Indy."  (Why didn't they say so !  )

Wish I had one!  TOC used to tell of one they put in scads of lead shot, and it pulled like gangbusters!

Best Wishes,
