I'm new here but have been collecting info on my first G scale loco project. I'm beginning a bash of a B-mann 4-6-0 into an 0-6-0 Irish engine along the lines of Ballymeana and Larne #6.

I've been taking photos along the way and will begin to post them along with some of the construction notes I've been keeping.

First off I completely disassembled the "Big Hauler" and cut off almost everything trying to reduce it to a workable "motor block". Here's what she looks like in all her "nakedness"........IMG_1163.jpgIMG_1163.jpg
 
Here is a photo of the engine I am using as inspiration. Obviously the wheel base of the big hauler is determining the starting point. I've been able to get some basic dimensions from the books I have and I've also measured up my Roundhouse Lady Anne for basic body measurements, but from there on I've got to do some creative measuring from photos and estimate the rest.IMG_1183.JPG
