Happy SWSat!

I'll jump on the NW-2 bandwagon too. Actually planned to show this engine this week. Great minds think alike.

Mine is a newer model from Williams by Bachman. These are great runners, and since I wired the motors in series, it can get as close to a crawl as a conventional engine can.

The railroad recently picked up some new business. There is a scrap yard on the edge of town and the owner has been begging for rail service for years. The President looked at the potential revenue and decided to lay down the new spur line to service the facility.

The crew on PRR 8543 were dispatched to pick up the two gondolas that were dropped at the yard over night and run them out to the new customer.

After they returned from that run, a pair of refers were ready to head out to the interchange for pick up.

Have a great weekend!
