Meet Crown Peak No. 1 (A Quick Look)

Finally the first locomotive for the railroad has arrived!  Crown Peak No. 1 is a Bachmann On30, outside frame 4-4-0 American.  She's a small engine, locomotive and tender having a length of about 48 scale feet from coupler to coupler (12 inches) and standing at only 10 feet tall (2.5 inches) at the cab.  Here are the initial photos:

 This engine came with plenty of optional details so that anyone can customize their engine to fit within their railroad.  You can choose the pilots (cow-catcher, platform), the smoke stacks (mushroom spark arrestor, standard straight stack), and the method which the engine will be fired (coal, oil, or wood).  You can also choose between spoke and solid pilot wheels.
