Lonestar? I know Coles was sold to a new company in Texas, This isn't the same place is it? I have the full build artical for the Coles Corless that was done in Live Steam yrs. ago and it's really going to ruin my day if that engine is no longer avalible.
No, those are two different animals altogether. So far as I know the Coles Corliss is still available and should be for the foreseeable future. The iron castings for the Lone Star Corliss were discontinued due to foundry problems and I assume the bronze were eventually discontinued for the same reason. Foundries disappear daily these days.
