Description

A forum for all persons interested in the manufacturing of steel, from the standpoint of the hobbyist. Postings are welcome regarding any facet of the steel industry, from the mining of iron ore and the production of coke, to Great Lakes shipping and steel-owned railroads, to blast furnaces and rolling mills. Discussion of steel-related industries such as shipbuilding and fabrication is also welcome. Scale model dialogue is encouraged, as is that of the prototype relating to the hobbyist. Announcements of plant tours, open-houses, museums, historical archives, and new scale model products are also welcome.

Please refrain from postings regarding religion, politics, union-management relations, etc.

The featured image is a magnet from the list owner's collection.

Re: NWSL Bachman GE 70T HOn3 Conversion Wheels - new release
I think they had the same drives. I have 3 units from the original release, 2 44Ts and 1 70T. I never took the shell off of the 70 but the 44s have one motor
