Welcome to the group! Glad to have you aboard! :cheers:
Sounds like you've got some nice machines! Looking forward to seeing some pics of your shop and the stuff you'll be working on. What loco will be your first project? :)

Hey it's Kim! :NotWorthy:
Thank you! I'm still working on the reassembly but the head is on the mill and the lathe bed is on the legs. Slow going with a kid and all. :help:
The first project on the list is a 3.5" gauge Kozo A3. Your huge write up on the project is what lead me to this forum! Some others on the list are a 3.5" gauge Lucky 7, 5" or 3.5" NYC 2-4-4T, and a Kozo K27. I should be good for my lifetime...
Here's a picture of my introduction to the hobby. I've been running the loco for a little over 10 years now. The 56(!) year old copper boiler is on it's last legs though. Great runner, burns anthracite while pulling a good train.
Or at least I tried to add a picture...

Thats a beauty of an engine! :ThumbsUp:

Wow Hayden! That's a nice-looking loco! I take it that you didn't build this one (since it's 56 years old? :)). How'd you come by it?
And just guessing by your handle that you are into Lego? Me too! I've got quite a large collection of it. I used to be WAY more into it. Was part of one of the original LTCs (Lego Train Clubs) and used to show our ever-changing train layout at various events. That was a great hobby to share with my kids as they were growing up. And while I still love lego, I'm looking more at downsizing my Lego collection now.
Does seem like you have a good list of projects there! And it's funny how that list just continues to grow ;)
Looking forward to following your builds!
Kim
