A few years ago, I was thinking about thinning my roster. Getting rid of some engines and rolling stuck that rarely saw track time. I hadn’t been using a PS3 Railking Erie Lackawanna E8 ABA much so I got it out to take a few pics and to check the chronometer and odometer. I figured I would put it up for sale. It was right around this time of year so if someone wanted it, I could deliver it at York to avoid shipping charges. But when I got it out and ran it, I remembered why I got it. It looks great. The EL paint scheme just does something for me. And it sounds great. Nice loping idle, nice diesel rumble at speed, nice horn, nice bell. It’s one of the best sounding diesels I have. So, I decided not to sell. It had close to 1000 scale miles so I gave it a lube job and kept it in the roster.
