THE EQUIPMENT...
The Colorado Midland Equipment Pack will not just be steam engines assembled that merely resemble the equipment of the CM. Jon Davis' first interest is preserving railroading history. In that respect, Jon has been researching colors, details... all the finer aspects of modeling that make his work stand out as some of the most accurate models available for V scale.
How accurate?
VSC has been in contact with a portion of the Colorado Midland's historical following via a dedicated Colorado Midland email list. Upon receiving an early pilot model from Jon Davis, pictures were supplied to the discerning body of Colorado Midland historians for input. The overwhelming response was: This is the most accurate rendition of a CM locomotive ever produced, in any medium. Period.
VSC has the fullest confidence that the CM locomotive and equipment roster will be a most accurate model representation of CM, for that is a signature of Jon Davis and his work.
The Colorado Midland Pack includes:
* CM 2-8-0 #1, CM 2-8-0 #7, CM 4-6-0 #18, CM 4-6-0 #25, CM 4-6-0 #42, CM 0-6-0 #100
