Accucraft Trains is proud to introduce the 1:20.3 scale D&RGW Class C-18 2-8-0 Consolidation type in both live steam and electric. Live steam models feature butane ceramic or coal-fired versions.
Of the several C-18s made by Baldwin, the #315 and #318 are the only ones to survive today, thanks to restoration efforts. Both were initially built for the Florence & Cripple Creek Railroad by Baldwin Locomotive Works in 1895 and 1896. The No. 315 locomotive was retired in 1949 and placed on display in Durango until its restoration in 2007 by the Durango Railroad Historical Society. Since its restoration, No. 315 has often operated on the Durango and Silverton Narrow Gauge Railroad and the Cumbres and Toltec Scenic Railroad. The D&RGW No. 318 was used under steam until 1982 and is now on static display at the Colorado Railroad Museum.
Accucraft Trains' C-18, developed by Aster designer Mr Miura san and our US staff and consultants. Machined parts and sheet metal are produced in Japan. Models in KIT can be offered upon request.
Photos of #315 shown are for a sample model. Features are subject to change. The #315 tender will have the Moffatt lettering. The #318 will have the Flying Rio Grande lettering and an extended smokebox.

Beginner’s guide to live steam butane-fired locomotives.
You mentioned Iso-Butane having a higher pressure, will this make the locomotive run longer?
Ridiculous soundtrack
First I ever heard a live steamer chuffing out "music". Cant sound that good then.
looks great
It’s a great engine. I wasn’t really in the market for one. But watching other people running them looked so fun. I have the blue boiler version.
Super fun.
Really cool to see some of my handy work here. I machined the timber for the deck and cladding for the loco at 5:00. Very interesting beast to drive. The only downside is you don't get to see the motion gear from the drivers seat. Interesting that when it was first steamed here in NZ, I could place the palm of my hand on the cladding while the safeties lifted.
I love trains, 🚆 🚊 🚂
Why is that an NA from rhe puffing billy? Also you're getting copyrighted from that song
Beauty is in the eye of the beholder, but to my mind this is the most attractive Shay Accucraft has ever produced. I just love the proportions.
I’m working on my Illinois central 4-8-2 mountain trip no 2600 live steam locomotive is HO and N scale hybrid and it runs off alcohol and it’s runs on N scale tracks
Hey @SteamAholic this consist is super rare! @4:32 are these arch-roof SP chair cars? I have never seen these passenger cars ever in G scale. Where are they from? Are they entirely scratch built or were they produced at one point?
Why am i seeing this just now 🤤🤤
Great info, great museum.
No D in locomotive .
That is a very cool engine. Looking forward to the next National Steamup.
👍
ok then. i would like to know how much like this would cost in United States dollars
👍
fun!
Do gauge one model trans run on G scale tracks?
Yes. Gauge 1 refers to the 45 mm width between the rails. Typical for G scale which is a loose term encompassing many scales that run on 45 mm, gauge 1 track. This C-18 is 1:20.3 scale for example representing American narrow gauge (3 ft between rails). Cheers!
Had a great time at this event.
Seen people asking about minimum radius for the Shay. Garry from Accucraft UK responded to me : "We tested it on a layout at the Llanfair show Mike and I'd say 3' would be the minimum, it started to bind on 2' 6" radius! " . Hope that helps. Looking forward to the UK consignment arriving.
must be a pain when it falls of the rails !
You've got a lot of grande stuff my man- I approve!
👍
Is there books or anything on how to properly run and maintain these things?

I would love to get some more pictures of this train! 0:44 do you have the contacts for the person that built it
WARNING!!! On February 21, 2022 I paid Channing from Accucraft 1000 USD via Paypal. The money was the down payment for a C-25 Coal Fired. He wanted to deliver the locomotive 4-5 months later. At the end of 2022 I still didn't have the locomotive. Month to month, Channing said it wouldn't be long before delivery. I still haven't received the locomotive. He no longer responds to my email. I think my money is gone. I have to warn all people who want to buy from Accucraft!!!

Explain the superheater. Will that cut down the spitting tendencies of earlier versions of the 2 cylinder shay?
