Looks can be deceiving, which is certainly the case with the Creole Queen. At first glance, you could easily imagine her wheeling down the Mississippi in the days of Mark Twain, while onlookers fish from the riverbanks. In reality, the Creole Queen was built in 1983 for the 1984 New Orleans World’s Fair. Her authentic appearance is no accident although powered by a modern diesel-electric propulsion system, the builders at Halter Marine took every precaution to ensure she captures the look and charm of an 1800s paddle wheeler. The Dumas model of the Creole Queen is constructed from precision Die cut birch and mahogany plywood. The included detail package is extensive, featuring stampings, wood turnings, castings, plastic parts, and a 3-page decal set. Running hardware kit #2349 provides the paddle wheel drive system and includes an internally reduced gear head motor that supplies ideal paddle speed. For adventurous modellers, her size allows exploration of alternative powering methods live steam included. If you’ve always dreamed of building your own working sternwheeler, the Dumas Creole Queen is for you.
