Bill Klein’s Locomotive
Bill Klein writes: Two different views of a custom built, seven foot long steam engine with wheel configuration of 4-8-4. Four A 49 motors work the wheels to turn the drive arms. Smoke units are in the smoke stack and wood burner. All Erector parts were used except the cardboard boiler tube. Gilbert suggested using cardboard and wood in some of the models featured in his books. The cow catcher on the front is all Erector parts.
Bill Klein’s Sidewinder Power Plant
Bill Klein writes: The flywheel is on its side for easy repairs. It runs a wood burner to make steam. The steam is simulated with a smoke unit operating through the two steam cylinders.
