 | Using Lego bricks, I was able to quickly build a complete mock-up of the locomotive. Note: in the background is Henner's HO scale "pizza box" layout... |
 | Here you can see that there is plenty of room left under the firebox for an ash pan and the steam line that will go to the front truck. |

 | This shows how a 6 foot tall engineer will look inside the cab. |
 | This picture and the next few show the locomotive on an LGB radius 1 curve (60 cm radius or about 2 feet). We did not have any R1 track sections available, so I just drew a line on a plank... |
