Bill Yoder of Germany has compiled a list of 3/4 inch scale live steam locomotives in North America, both American prototypes as well as Foreign prototypes.

It was very kind that Cap Purinton loaned me four of the old photo albums
during the [[Waushakum Live Steamers|Waushakum meet]] last August. I haven’t listed all the locos I
noticed in those files yet – I still have 10 or so to go. But I wanted to
have this updated version out before the end of the year. This is only the
third version this year, note the code “18-03”.


Eastern Europe,
Perhaps a few things now make more sense: I think both of the
standard-gauge-style 2-4-4T’s were built by [[Gene Stevens]] in the 1930s-40s.
Removing the glitches and errors is of course a constant task – always
helpful for any and all additions and corrections.

In the files I have changed my eMail from “web.de” to “gmx.de” as seen
below. Not a big deal; I use three-four addresses total and nothing needs to
be sent double.


Hi guys and ladies, too!
Hearty Christmas greetings,


Now we’re up to 340 locos. Of course, all kinds of information holes remain. All are invited to fill in the holes or correct info.
Bill Yoder


I’ve begun a program to give every loco a code designation: wheel arrangement-prototype-builder. That way, a loco will usually have only one proper position within a file. That should help when searching for specific locos. I’ve completed the work on this in only one of the three files, I will nevertheless send out the files now as they are. The completed file is the one containing 4-6-0’s and larger.

One of my main questions now: I’m listing the original Langworthy Hudson, code designation “464.NYC5297.Langworthy”, as sold and relettered to Southern #1501. Is that correct, is that really the same loco? Who can help me out?


This is the third edition for 2016 – the edition number is 16-3.

The Registry

Gvardeysk/Russia,

10 December 2018

Dear friends:

Great to have met a number of you and also the locos during August in Mass.! That also includes Daris Nevil from Texas. It would be really neat to crash the Montreal LS anniversary meet in June 2019, but the time doesn’t suit.

It was very kind that Cap Purinton loaned me four of the old photo albums during the Waushakum meet last August. I haven’t listed all the locos I noticed in those files yet – I still have 10 or so to go. But I wanted to have this updated version out before the end of the year. This is only the third version this year, note the code “18-03”.

Perhaps a few things now make more sense: I think both of the standard-gauge-style 2-4-4T’s were built by Gene Stevens in the 1930s-40s. Removing the glitches and errors is of course a constant task – always helpful for any and all additions and corrections.

In the files I have changed my eMail from “web.de” to “gmx.de” as seen below. Not a big deal; I use three-four addresses total and nothing needs to be sent double.

Hearty Christmas greetings,

Bill Yoder
