* Mantua 4-6-0, From 9-11-2010 Allentown train show. Menchants Square Mall.
* A 4-6-0 I never seen before.
* The Meadowood Logging Company. Mantua made this road name, but it was on a 1988 released 2-6-6-2 Mallet Logger series 334.

No ken, uncataloged factory painted locomotive. This is wrong ! The tender is from a Mantus Mallet Logger, 2-6-6-2. 1988 Mantua catalog.

That is funny- like meat eaters working owning a vegetarian restaurant. Or being a member of PETA and owning a butcher shop.

Answere found !!

Well I found the Tender behind a different Mantue locomotive. The tender is from a Mantua Mallet Logger, 2-6-6-2, # 334 series. 1988 Mantua catalog. It still looks good behind the 4-6-0. I will change it to a wood load. I will run it as a 4-6-0 or 4-8-0. Try to match paint on tender body, and repaint cab to to match with a black roof like the 2-6-6-2 has. Mantua gave the Mallet the number 24. I will stay in the 20 series.

Hey MB,
Check out you tube, there is a guy that has video's of making a Tyco 4-6-0 into the BTTF 3 loco. He did provide a link to the "decals" ( actually stickers prnted on a ink jet printer) for the loco. If I think of it tomorrow I'll look for the link and post it here. Lots of time to kill at the airport tomorrow................
