@StevefromPA posted:@leapinlarry nice pick up with the century club 773! One heck of a steam loco. My father and I were watching a PRR documentary-type program last night(but also included junctions in the Midwest with locos from the C&O, B&O, PRR , ATSF, Nickel Plate Road and more. Best part was seeing the consist- a PRR would be pulling C&O, NW, Reading, And a plethora of RS From a ton of different roads. it really got me in the mood to run some steam(and I’m very, very partial to diesel- no offense) but your enginelooks like it jumped right out the tv!
also- I like that you didn’t ditch your original newsstand and have the fake news next to the Lionel News
@p51 nice pick up with the weaver Alco RS-(3?)! In that beautiful southern crescent. But it seems you have some even better plans in store for it!
@A.J. Love Alco and that MTH Long Island RS-3 that ya scored! Great paint scheme-what are you gonna haul with that? Ive been eyeing and RS-3(in LV scheme or early Amtrak) or an RS-11. All these RS Alcos are stoking my desire to get myself one!
Steve- If you're looking for a nice Alco- I just recently acquired these two beauties. Both are Lionel RS-11, command equipped. Not sure what other liveries they were made in.
@A.J.- that LIRR RS-1 is a beauty. Sure am gonna miss MTH.
