Nice Bing Collection Charlie. I especially like the one front center with covered boiler. I have a smaller version but the base isn't as colorful.
-
:D :D

Nice Charlie. Looks to me like a Marklin tried to sneak in the back row.
Well spotted! I see him hiding back there
Well then, wouldn't a Marklin be at least a second cousin once removed, so still part of the family in a way?
No, he's the Black Sheep of the family... Charlie, you have my address ;) :D :D
Apologies. Operator error. The Marklin Family paid the Bing Family the Ransomware and the Marklin Family Member has been returned to the Marklin Clan.

Charlie, I gotta say that your Bing Beast has some perfect purple-blueing to the boiler 8) 8)
and it has such a nice and big inline oiler

A very nice lineup Charlie, have fun in Germany!
-
Thanks for all the nice feedback.
Honestly, I didn’t know how many Bing engines I had. 🤠
Forced me to pull them all out and dust them. I moved things around and put them all together on one shelf in the Steam Cave.
So, the Bing Family has been reunited.
-
very nice Charlie, enjoy yourself at the Bing museum & be sure to take plenty of photo's for the rest of us to view please.

WOW CHARLIE!! 8) 8)
I have always wanted one of those Bings up front with the firebox that surrounds the boiler. I really like how they have the heavy cast tops on their stacks as well 8) I almost went for one a couple weeks ago on eBay, but it did need some work (loose pieces) and I keep telling myself no more projects! :D The base-mounted engine however had some very nice paint/decals...

Now that's a nice family portrait :)
-
I always like your family portraits, Charlie. It feels like a homework assignment- see several I like, then rush to the books to find out what model it is and put them on my want list.
Thanks for the awesome pics.

What a STUNNING looking family you have there Charlie!

In advance of going to German in November for the Bing Museum Show, I pulled out all of my Bing Engines and took a Family Portrait.
This beast would not fit on the table. So, it got its own Portrait:
