| While
not a model of any specific prototype,
RUBY is a simple locomotive based on
Baldwin practice and is typical of small
locomotives used on industrial and
shortline railroads all over the world.
This is an excellent engine for
beginners in live steam, as it is simple
to operate and reliable in use. On the
other hand, it is sophisticated enough
to interest those live steamers with
more experience.
RUBY will
easily lend itself to kitbashing and
cosmetic modification. The sheet-metal
work (cab and tanks) are designed to be
easily removed, leaving a complete
running chassis and boiler ready for a
new superstructure. With a little
imagination and ingenuity, the tanks can
be eliminated and a tender added,
leading or trailing wheels added, or
other changes can be made, resulting in
your own unique locomotive.
