B-4R Build part 1

B-4R #605 Build

What started the C&S project

In the beginning of 2022, I had found the C&S Falcon branch through Jim Jones's "In the Shadow of the Rockies". I had initially dabbled in it with N scale, however that did not entirely go to plan, the lack of available small steam in that scale coupled with my fat fingers and Micro-trains couplers didn't go over very well. Around April was the TCA show in Denver and I had usually operated on the Colorado Rail Link layout in the past. I was on the verge of deciding what to do with these model plans when my friend Leighton mentioned he had some C&S steam for sale. Specifically it was a BLi 2-8-0 that had a cooked decoder, along with a short C&S passenger train. He gave a good price, so I ended up buying the 2-8-0, a BLi SD7 in CB&Q colors, and the short passenger train from him. 

At the time I wasn't entirely sure what era I was going for that early in my modeling of the C&S,  I knew the locomotive was a touch bit modern for the branch but the Burlington logo and C&S sublettering was actually something I was planning on doing at first. My initial plans were to model the branch as it was in its last few years of operation leading into 1935. These plans would change, but for the time being #638 was my only bit of C&S steam motive power. It would be joined in the Fall of 2022 by C&S #312, my first bachmann 4-6-0 rebuild.

After the October 2022 PMRA show in Pueblo, I acquired a few other locomotives to operate with #312 that were much more era appropriate. This moved #638 to sort of back burner status. I displayed it on my shelves along with the Zephyr Connection passenger train as it was the only largish locomotive that could go with the passenger cars. 

At some point in Early 2023, I redecaled 638 as #605, a B-4R which the BLi model was much closer to. #605 also has the morbid curiosity bit of being the locomotive present at Ludlow. I still didn't know exactly what I was going to do outside of the decals, though I did 3d print a headlight and bracket for it. 

#605 at TCA in April 2023. Now sporting the re-decaling treatment.

I had no definitive plan for #605 outside of occasional backup power use at shows until I saw a very nifty post by Tintic Range Railway on Facebook about a bachmann 2-8-0 that had been backdated  to represent an early 20th century locomotive. I had the inspiration at that point to do the same thing to #605. 

First was to come up with a plan, I figured to make a more accurate 605 I would need to do the following. 

    -Replace the cross compound with a single stage

    -Install some inserts to make the cab windows arch topped

    -Lower the running boards to bottom of cab height

    -install a wooden pilot 

    -build a tender insert to simulate wood extensions 

    -Install an older headlight. 

    -Swap the large tender watch hatch for a smaller one. 

    -Put a spoked pilot wheel on the front of the locomotive. 

I started with the basics; the air compressor before the PMRA show in October 2023

now with a single stage compressor. 

On the Falcon wye at the PMRA show. 

After the show I installed a wooden pilot. This took some trickery to get right, the coupler had to get swapped to a long shank to get the entire coupler head to clear the pilot when it was installed at the correct height on the pilot beam. I may come back and tweak this at some point, but for the time being, it's installed! I also found a spoked pilot axle in my stash of spares and installed it. 

Mocking up with the new pilot. Note spoked wheels too. 

Now with a painted pilot.

I need to swap the headlight over for a box headlight at some point to really sell the look, but just the pilot swap by itself really backdates the locomotive. At some point I'll go back through the list and get more work done on 605, but for the time being it really is looking the part. 

stay tuned for part 2 when the rest of the detailing work is completed.

Concept

The Falcon branch was primarily operated with the C-3E class of ten wheelers, and a handful of smaller 2-8-0's during the 1920's in my modeling era. I have some other locomotives that sort of fit the bill of "could have been" or that are historically tied to the branch. Case in point is 101, my 4-4-0 that would have been D&NO #5. Its entire life at the beginning would have been on the Falcon line trundling between Denver and Pueblo. Post merger would have seen significantly less of the locomotive on the branchline, seeing these lighter 4-4-0's assigned to flatter territory north of Denver. I wanted to have a representation of the D&NO power, so I made a model of #101 (subject for a later article) for some historical representation. 

My primary backup power for train shows also fell into this category as well. One of the first purchases into the realm of C&S stuff after I decided the Falcon branch was for me was a Broadway Limited 2-8-0 done up as C&S 638 with the Burlington herald. I had to replace the electronics, but the locomotive was a good "Guarantee" for train shows with the freemo. If the smaller cantankerous locomotives wouldn't play, this one would. It lived up to the troublefree locomotive status, being the only locomotive in service for a chunk of the October 2022 PMRA show in Pueblo while 312 was out of service. However this locomotive looked "out of place" with the older 20's rolling stock. Sure I ended up backdating it to be C&S 605, but it still looked too large for modeling a branchline. I started looking for something that would be reliable and more era-appropriate, as I wasn't happy with 312's performance consistency.

Roundhouse 2-6-0

I worked a year at a hobby shop in Colorado Springs out of high school (2012-2013) and I remember that we actually had a nice collection of smaller steam being made around that time. Roundhouse had the 2-6-0 and 2-8-0, the mantua mallets were really nice runners...... So I set out to keep an eye out for one of the Roundhouse locomotives to be a good bit of backup power. One night while searching on ebay I found a Roundhouse 2-6-0 of the new run for the nice price of $60. I threw a bid on it, not expecting to win, but I ended up with it in the end. 

The C&S only had a handful of moguls that made it past the 1906 classification system on the standard gauge; 250 and 251 in class B-3H, and 252-254 as class B-3J. The rest of the 2-6-0's were either off the roster, or converted to 0-6-0's by that point. I have been unable to find any photos of 252-254, and only one photo of 250-251. From what information I have, 252-254 also ended up 0-6-0's before long. So that leaves 250-251 on the table. Both are smaller than the Roundhouse 2-6-0, probably better to have a ken kidder base or something like that to start with for accuracy. In this particular case I was more concerned with operational capabilities than accuracy. I chose 251 as the number since I had a photo of that particular locomotive, albeit a scrap line photo. 

The model as it arrived, CN #412

On the test rollers, it turned out to be a VERY smooth runner.

This motor was a bit of a surprise on a modern DCC-ready locomotive, but it runs so smooth and draws so little power. Who am I to complain?

The model arrived, a CN 2-6-0 with a DCC plug in the tender. So what was the first thing I hacked up to make it more C&S like? Er, well...... nothing. See, my end goal with this particular project was to make it #251 in lettering only, maybe some headlight upgrades. I wanted this to be my turnkey backup locomotive, when the bachmann ten wheelers don't want to play, this thing can come out and look somewhat era correct. 

I started with my usual solution of soaking the solvaset into the decals on the model until they start to come off with a little scrubbing. However these decals/pad printing were a little bit stubborn. I ended up getting as much off as I could without causing too much mechanical damage to the paint, and then just painting over the remains with a flat black paint. The boiler jacket also received a coat of flat black. 

Post decal removal and before the jacket was painted.

I didn't do much with the project outside of installing a spare loksound V5 decoder in it and a mega bass speaker. I was trying to knock out more projects before I got too far into this one. In April of 2023, the Pikemasters setup a small layout at Library 21c for the makers fair. I decided that this would be a good test for a still unlettered 251.

I was expecting 251 to give a good performance at the show. I was wrong, it gave an EXCELLENT performance during the show. I had eliminated the notion in my head that it needed a keep alive of some kind about an hour in, as the thing did not care. dirty track? switches? it just powered on. Tractive effort was also remarkable thanks to those traction tires. Eventually I sent 312 out for some laps so I could say that 312 operated at every Pikemasters show in our first season, but 251 was the star of the show. 

At this point I knew this was going to be the backup locomotive, no questions asked. So it got moved higher up the priorities list. Decals, here we go. 

Decaled, awaiting dullcoat.

After a quick coating of dullcoat.

The finished product

The 251 had a flat sided cab versus the inset one the model had. So some filler was applied here. It's not going to be award winning putty work there, but the decals hide it well. 

I put some thinfilm decals on the model and then hit it with some dullcoat. I was super impressed with how it all turned out. 

I have some 3d printed headlights and class lights in the pipeline for this locomotive that will just slot into the holes the factory lights go into. This will give this locomotive a C&S flair without too much surgery. In the end I wanted the minimum amount of modifications to this model so it can function as the trouble free backup, and I'm more than happy with the end result. It's not an accurate #251 by far, but it will allow me some more correct looking motive power than the large consolidation at shows. 

This whole concept may have been for naught in the end however. After I initially purchased this locomotive, I acquired another bachmann ten wheeler of the older spectrum run. This became #310 and was a stellar performer. #310 ended up doing the bulk of the running at TECO before I installed DCC in #251. #312 now had a reliable running mate that was a correct locomotive class at that. Another spectrum 4-6-0 is also due to join the fleet before long. These locomotives have proven to be excellent performers at the TCA show in early April. 

I'm sure #251 will still get plenty of use, however I don't think I'm going to rack up as many miles as I thought I would after #312's miserable PMRA performance. It does however give me a mogul, and that's cool enough for me!

250 and 251; interesting tidbit

In the process of doing some research on the 250 and 251, I found out that these 2 moguls were leased along with a Colorado Midland rotary plow to the Denver, Northwestern and Pacific in the early 1900's to reopen Rollins pass. These engines sure saw a large portion of the state in their travels!

 

Modeling the Colorado and Southern C-3E class part 2

At the end of part 1, we had picked out our candidates for the C-3E class modeling, the bachmann ten wheeler coming out on top of the list for a starting point. Since that article was published, I've built 2 C-3E's and have a 3rd on the shelf of unlikely origin. 

#312, the first victim, er uh, candidate

The first C-3E started out life as one of the new bachmann 4-6-0's in the blue box. This particular one was a NYC ten wheeler I purchased from Amazon. Nothing too fancy here, just the basic model.

#312 started out as NYC 1238

A quick soaking of the old lettering in walthers solvaset left me with a locomotive sans decals. 

#312 now without decals next to K-2 ten wheeler #637

One of the first things I wanted to do was create the headlight on a bracket that the C-3E's all had. I first tried this with a PSC mason bogie bracket and wasn't that impressed.......
 

Mason bogie bracket, not quite what I'm looking for

While thinking on the headlight situation, I proceeded with the sound install. This locomotive received a soundtraxx megabass speaker in the tender along with a Loksound V5 Nano decoder. The speaker is so large I had to do quite a bit of milling on the tender frame and the nano barely fit back there with the speaker. My plan was (and still is) to place the keep alive under the coal load. I also added some coal board extensions at this time. These were done off memory of how I "thought" the boards should look, they never looked right to me and we'll come back to that shortly. At this time I also hit the model with a can of Walschaerts-be-gone (pat pending) and removed the valve gear. This would receive some tidying up before long, I ended up having to order new hardware for the main rods from bachmann, as the normal eccentric crank acts as a washer so a smaller screw can be used to hold everything together. Without the crank the main rod would just fall off, I ordered the larger hex head hardware for the 4-4-0's that don't have valve gear and it was a perfect fit!

312 on the bench with the coal boards and the lack of valve gear.

Around this time, I figured the best way to get the unique headlights for the C&S was to design and 3d print them. So out came 123D and I made up some headlights. I based 312s headlight on the real 312's round style headlight, at the same time I made a box headlight on the same bracket that some of the other locomotives had. I printed these headlights on my Elegoo mars resin 3d printer. They came out very nice, not 100% accurate, but they definitely are recognizable as C&S lights.  

the 3d printed headlight test fitting on the smokebox. Note I've also filed some of the extra valve gear detail off at this time.

With the headlight out of the way, now it was time to work on some other details. When I designed the headlight, I also attempted to design the unique cab that 312 received in the 20's but decided to hold off on that for now. I may revisit this at some point, but I decided having all the C-3E's in their late 1910's appearances would be easier to do. As they later started having odd drivers and tender swap galore occurring.  I also designed a tender bunker that would be a little more accurate than my attempts at building the coal boards.

In September of 2022, the Pikemasters freemo club hosted its first ever setup at the TECO show in Colorado Springs. I managed to get 312 decaled up on one side with microscale C&S decals before the show and it ran around showing off a short mixed train for the show. 312 did just fine with the 6 car train on this layout, only issues arising were due to some bad trackwork on the return modules and the occasional mis-thrown switch.

#312 passing a small 4-4-0 on Mike Malines stock yard module.

Parked on the spur at Granger on my module.

One thing that bugged me was the decals didn't look quite right. Nobody really makes a C&S decal for standard gauge locomotives pre-burlington lettering that I knew of. But It looked better with the lettering that without it, so a short time later I decaled the other side of the locomotive. 

Now decaled on both sides and with a painted headlight to boot!

I didn't have long to wait until another pikemasters setup bought #312 out to play again in October. This time 312's performance was hampered by a rather stiff grade on the modules, account of the ramp the layout was setup on. 312 spent a fair amount of time in front of 638 showing off my work until, it stopped working about halfway through day one of the show. I sidelined the locomotive on a spur to keep showing it off, at least I could still show the work. On a random chance later that day, I selected it again and it ran. Maybe it overheated or had a fluke? who knows, so I ran it. The next day, same problem, this time straight out the gate. What I was able to determine was there was either a bad connection or a bad spot on the commutator in the motor, as tapping around the motor on the outside of the shell would get it going again. I have heard mixed opinions on the new bachmann ten wheelers because of poor motor quality, so this could be the culprit. Either way, 312 was relegated to double heading for that show because of the grades.

Two more? #310 and #309

One thing I haven't mentioned at this point in the article is I acquired 2 more ten wheelers towards the end of Summer. In August, one of our former members at Pikemasters passed away and his family donated a bunch of items to the club. Included in this I found a brass Gem/Olympia Maryland and Pennsylvania ten wheeler. What I didn't know up until that point is the Bachmann ten wheeler is loosely based on the Ma&Pa ten wheeler. It was a basket case, with some valve gear missing, no drive train, and lots of loose parts and bodywork that needed to be soldered back on. I decided that this would become my #309. Since these photos I have removed the remaining valve gear on this one as well 

#309 next to #312 for comparison. 

Not long after the October show, I ordered a Bachmann Spectrum 4-6-0 from the original run of models. This one a UP model. This would become my #310 and would allow me to put to use some of the methods I had figured out with #312 to practice. First thing that occurred was to equip this one with a sugar cube speaker and Loksound V5 micro.

#309, 310 and 312 all together. 

One of the things I wanted to do at this point was change out the pilots on the locomotives, the Gem model had a a different small style of cow catcher with steps that was very close to what the real 309 had, so I decided this one could stay as is. The other 2 locomotives had bachmann's wide running board across the front, not exactly prototypical for the C&S (or for many roads for that matter....). So I searched for a solution. What I found was PSC #2962 brass pilots were pretty close to what the C-3E's had in some photos. I ordered 2 of these pilots and set about swapping out the pilots. 

310 mocking up one of the pilots. Looks like I'm going to have to remove that cast coupler pocket part......

#310 now equipped with the pilot and a kadee scale head coupler installed. I don't use trip pins, so this will couple to just about everything.

#312 with the new pilot. I think this actually made a decent addition of weight to this thing..

The pilots went on nicely, I had to remove the bachmann metal coupler box to make them fit and look right. I'll make a 3d printed draft gear part to sit here to look the part. I also painted the pilots at this time, and while I was at it, I painted the smokeboxes silver to match the prototype. 

Both locomotives now sporting new pilots and painted smokeboxes. A huge improvement!

One thing I mentioned earlier in the blog is that I wasn't happy with how the decals from microscale looked. I ordered sets from several manufacturers and found the ones from thinfilm were just about perfect! To top it off, they were actually silver, which is correct for the post 1908 era versus white. I destroyed the first set, turns out thinfilm decals don't like solvaset....... But I managed to salvage enough to finish #310. This was a HUGE improvement. I went back and removed the lettering off 312 and replaced it with thinfilm decals as well.

Both engines with the thinfilm decals

What's next?

Ok, so both engines look pretty good at this point. What's next? Well there are a few items on the list I'd like to knock out.

    -Redo the coal bunker on 312 and make one for 310. 

    -3d print a headlight for 310. 310 had a rather unique headlight I still need to design. 

    -Install keep alives in both 310 and 312 (insert your brand of capacitor if that's not your cup of tea)

    -backup lights for both engines, 310 had a rather large box headlight, 312 I don't have any clear shots of, but it seems to be a more modern round design. 

    -Install linkage for the unmodeled Stephenson valve gear on all 3 engines. 

    -Repower and repair #309, it needs some real TLC!

    -design and print a draft gear box to cosmetically complete the front of the locomotives. 

    -add crews and piping detail. 

    -add class lights

Whew, that's been a lot of work done in the article at this point! I have an offer from a friend to purchase one more of the spectrum 4-6-0's, which will become #317 in my fleet, this one will be equipped with the large pilot snow plow. 4 of the C-3E's allows me to pretty much accurately model the Falcon branch comfortably. 

Until next time, keep on modeling!

Colorado and Southern steam locomotive roster

 This is the master roster list for the C&S I use for modeling purposes. It includes all the narrow gauge locomotives and Standard gauge locomotives that made it to the 1906 system classification. It does not include locomotives that made it to the C&S but were gone by 1906. If you have any information I have missed or would like to contribute some additional information, feel free to comment on this page. Be sure to check out the book "The Colorado Road" by F. Hol Jr. Wagner if you want even more information on this topic.

Reading the C&S Classification system

In 1906, the C&S started using a system used by the ICC (Interstate Commerce Commision) to classify the locomotives. A letter indicated the arrangement of wheels, and a number indicated number of driven axles. A second letter at the end was used to indicate different classes of that type, Eg, C-3E was a Ten Wheeler of the 5th type the railroad had. A number after the 2nd letter indicated a similar class that was added later. Eg. C-3H1 was a batch of locomotives ordered after C-3H that was similar but not identical. 

Letters and their meanings

"A" : No pilot or trailing wheels (Eg 0-4-0 or 0-6-0)

"B": One leading axle (Eg 2-6-0 or 2-8-0)

"C": Two leading axles (Eg 4-6-0, 4-4-0)

"D": One trailing axle (Eg 0-4-2, not used by the C&S)

"E": One leading axle, one trailing axle (Eg 2-8-2, 2-10-2)

"F": 2 leading axles, one trailing axle (Eg 4-6-2)

"G": 2 leading axles, 2 trailing axles (Eg 4-8-4, not used by the C&S)
