Here are some recent photos of the loco and it's tenders. Origionally I thought to build a long-haul tender for the loco as it looks from the factory. That is to say I was building a 1:20th scale tender.

Here we have a non-painted pic of it. This was before I was fed up with trying to smooth out the joints where the shell was cut down.
Ugly tender.

The shell was reduced from an R/C Big Hauler that I got for a steal.
Sliced and Diced shell.

Then, of course, the frame was made up of spruce stock available at my local hobby store. This store just liquidated their train stock and always has a time when I come in for supplies. I think they've finally stopped trying to guess what I'm going to build next. :)

I soon became bored with the toy-ish look of the whole thing though. I decided that the only way to overcome this was to change the looks of the loco by changing the size of it. The attempt I am making is to convert my Ruby to a 1:32 scale 2-4-2 Columbia by scaling down some of the details to make the whole loco 'seem' smaller. It is getting a new, wooden cab that would be at home on a V&T 4-4-0 and a tender that's modeled after the same setup. Also, I plan to shorten the stack and lower the boiler though these things are down the road a bit. :)
So far the cab and tender are progressing quite nicely.

The tender wheels will have to change as should the trucks. I'm not quite confident enough to build new trucks yet though. I do have wheels that will be used which almost perfectly match the 22" wheels that are spec'd for this tender. When those get axles I'll post more pics. :) The tender currently sits at it's nominal normal highth, so the bolsters will have to be shimmed when the wheels change size, but this has been planned for.

More as it's available!
