Got this Tyco 0-6-0 chassis at the Timonium show Sunday for a few bucks, I wasn't aware (yet) of the PT motor in the engine chassis of a steam engine until this find. Since I own so few Tyco steam engines  . Anyway, is this the Big Six chassis ?

* I wouldn't call it a big six tho it is similar. It is the last 0-6-0 that tyco made. Real cheep construction. use of the PT drive. unreliable. No draw bar. tender hooked to loco with couplers. I seen them in colorfull paint skeems like the Southern RR, in their green and silver.

| That's for the 1980s incarnation of the 0-6-0 with tender. They used the larger tender that came with the 2-6-2 Prarie, and for whatever reason used an X2F coupler instead of a drawbar. If that's called the Big Six still then, then yes, but it only fits certain shells.
