Description For what started out as a rather whimsical concept, this turned out fairly realistic, if I may say so myself. A Pacific with a rather French flair to it... inspired by a garden wheelbarrow.


Drawn back in late July.



EDIT: 12/15: Today I learned a bit about vacuum brakesβ€” I'm rather surprised that no has pointed out my confusion of a vacuum brake exhaust pipe with the feedwater pipe in this picture!

Ah, no, just the two-wheel types.

Very nice, very realistic, I more likely couldnt tell that it wasn't a real train if you haven't told me. And the wheels look intresting too.

Thanks! The wheel design actually came from the wheelbarrow itself. I just adopted the original four-spoke design a bit to fit the bigger drive wheels.

The rest of it I made up, though with the French theme in mind.
