Slim Princess Visual Compared to a DRG&W Narrow Gauge Engine?
Author: wabash2800

I've been waiting to see a photo of the engines side by side. Anyone have one to share here?

Victor,
Not exactly what you are looking for but the closest I have. The location is Rockwood last February during a blizzard. 18 is on the main with a photo excursion while 476 pulls through on the passing track. She will precede the 18 back into town to clear the line.

Of course 476 is one of the smaller K28's. The comparison would be even stronger with one of the beefier K36's

Size wise it isn't hugely different than RGS  20, compared to a K series they're pretty small.

Thanks Lawrence. I do like the image, however.

Thanks for another great photo. Once the engine leaves the property these kinds of images will truly be inspiring in providing a perspective of where the the loco operated for this short time period.
