Tyco Manufactured, Shark...baldwin Rf 16
Sharkipede ????
Just acquired several old tyco sharks that I thought I might kitbash into a shark-i-pede....I use to do custom cars before I turned to ho, have always gone for realism,but thought it might be nice to create my own loco...so that is why I got these... any thoughts on this?

Would cut off the back of a A unit shark and then graft on part of a B unit to this...has to be 91 feet in scale as that was the original lenght.. then place trucks under this body..the centipede, baldwin dr-12-8-1599/2 had 12 axles, eight of which were driven..awesome machine...I just am using a different style body verus what was one it which was called the babyface, becasue I like the shark style..
