Back in the late 1970’s I’d received a request from a dentist in Memphis for the erection drawings for a Mopac 6600 Pacific. The dentist would meet his grandfather at the Memphis bridge and ride in the cab to the Memphis passenger station. I went dow to the Mechanical department and Ray Curl pulled the drawings and we sent him a copy. A year later I was working in Memphis and contacted the dentist and he’d completed a live steam locomotive. It was 100% scaled down 6600. No odd domes or out of scale fittings. Wonder what happen to it?
