F81 2-10-2 Locomotive Progress April 12th 2019 - Drive System Started |
 |
| Barry has built the initial drive frame for the five axles. Notice it pivots in the middle to be able to negotiate the 60 inch radius curves on his indoor G/Gn3 layout's dual gauge mainline. |

"The chassis you see ran on
the curves and turnouts with no issues. It bends between drivers 2 and 3, just
like the L131 does that BLW built over ten years ago
(the L131 still runs
very well and is my favorite SG engine)."
