ROKMAN1445's artistic side

Yep, I'm an artist, but not a big one. So far, I have created 2 characters-Ringo, a 2-6-2T that looks like old shape Henry, and an unnamed character, a Bo-Bo electric diesel- for my fictional railway, which also has no name. There will be another few characters. The unnamed Bo-Bo electric will be posted around 5/24. Give me some suggestions

For a Bo-Bo how about Bobby

For a Bo-Bo how about Bobby

I like that name, but I don't think that such a name was common in the 1930-50's, as my fictional railway takes place in that time period.

Oh, it was in the UK mate, why do you think the nickname for a British police man is to call them a 'Bobby'? This was due to the original police force being setup by one Robert Peel and Bob/Bobby is short for Robert. So the name Bobby has been in use in the UK literally for centuries and still is

Another error on my part, but this is a Southern New England railroad, along the coastline.

Ah, ok, well I can't speak for you yankees

That's okay. Any locomotives? Ringo is freelanced, just an fyi

I've designed a few freelance locos before; one on paper and some in Lego Digital Designer. I don't know if they would work in real life, but I can explain a few (only because I can't remember all of them, as the LDD models are on my old computer and I really don't like using it.)

I'll try to include better descriptions and pictures later!

The one I drew was a small 2-2-4T stirling single saddle tank engine (I don't even know if those are things in real life!)

I also made a 4-4-4T tank engine with sloped side tanks and a very large boiler and firebox, and a cowcatcher in front. The coal bunker in this one is nearer to the tanks and firebox.

There's also a sort of GWR 14xx and J50 hybrid and a shunter diesel based on Salty, but symmetrical (the distance between the cab and either bufferbeam is the same). Another engine is probably one that definitely won't work in real life I simply called Cyril: he's a 4-4-0 that I really tried to make look pretty, but his cylinders are above his running plate and the side rods reach out too far to be safe in real life.
These engines I just make up as I go along with the drawing/building and are totally for fun.
