A Speedy Alco C-415
Author: M-420

Showing off its to accelerate out of a full stop, BN C-415 #4010 charges out of Woodinville, WA with a cab hop featuring a nifty little NP 3D printed caboose.
With a top speed of 65 MPS, the 415 was not exactly a rail burner. But then, blazing speed was not what the locomotive was designed for.

Are the Bowser C-415's in circulation already?  Or is this brass/some other manufacturer?  The NP "wood" caboose looks terrific.

Oh heck no....This is an old Key Imports brass model that I've repowered with a Rapido motor and Bowser trucks and a bunch of additional detail parts (1 of 2 that I've done).
These run as good as anything avaiable on the market today....

Your model is definitely a "rail burner"! Just awesome!
