Old 99 is a Toys and Joys plan. There is an 18 part blog describing the building sequence I used.
It is 29” long, 8” high, and 6” wide. The wood used is Black Walnut and Maple. The track is 1 1/2” high and 2 sections of 18”, Oak bed, Black Walnut ties and Maple rails. The third picture is the home that they finally found.

Who doesn’t like trains? This covers two of my favorite pass times- trains and woodworking. Beautiful job on this locomotive, as on all of your pieces. I can appreciate the patience and craftsmanship it takes to make these excellent models. Thanks for the series on the build.
