Two examples of the current 3rd Rail offering of an O gauge brass model of the B&O Q-4B mikado are in this video. Q-4B is my favorite locomotive. B&O is my favorite RR. These are fine representations of the prototype. These are the only models I own with a working floor plate between engine and tender. This plate provides a floor between the engine and tender that allows the fireman to shovel coal to trim the stoker fed fire. The floor plate adds complexity in coupling the engine and tender for operating.
