Narrow Gauge Boxcab

Probably should have been working on CN #7470. Oh well. Now it's out of the way.


What is a boxcab? Boxcab locomotives are boxcars that have been powered, commonly by gasoline engines. These were some of the earliest gas/diesel operated trains, usually in America. Boxcabs are easily assembled and cost effective. Locomotives like this have long histories of completing tasks on industrial and shortline railroads.


Controls:
1 is headlights
2 is rear lights
Trim is throttle (engine has pistons, check cockpit view).
Brake is brake. I'd hope you understand that by now....

Enjoy!
