RUSSIAN STEAM LOCOMOTIVE
Permalink Closed

Gentlemen,


I have strated to pick up info for scratchbuilding an 1-35 russian steam engine Type"O" (Ovechka) dressed up as a military loco ( may be partially armored) on the basis of the info provided by Mr. Michael Derela, from the PIBWL  Site,  4 view Plans from MK Magazine and a sole photo of the military example SMIALY SZEROCKI in the Polish site, because this particular armour pattern may be the final choice as configuration of my subject, since it does not hide under the armor plating such capital details as boiler,engine gyzmos, wheels,etc.


 Any photo of OVECHKA TYPE LOCO, of the particular SMIALY SZEROCKI(Wide Gauge) or even from this particular machine in it´s original russian shape, will be greatly appreciated


 Tank you in advance


 EDUARDO MAMORETTI

Hi Eduardo
I have a huge book on Soviet/Russian steam locos at home. It has countless of drawings of the different versions of the class O. As the book is huge I may have troubles fitting it in my scanner, but I'll try.


Unfortunately a search on the web doesn't produce much material - but here is two images:

I have some books on russian armoured trains as well, and will leaf through them quickly to see if there should be something of interest there.


Sounds like a very ambitious project!


Regards


Claus
