Hey Ron, 

Thanks I got the B&O and RF&P Geep mixed up. Yes I'm still with Duke I'll have to see if there's someone around that builds models. I know a lot of the older timers have left the company.  I knew several that where buying the Duke train cars that were made by weaver. They ended the program when Duke donated the  holiday train Layout to the Cincinnati Museum Center. At the time I was working the R&D for Duke and Weaver to have a Piedmont & Northern RS-3 to power the full set of Duke Energy Cars.  As for the air tanks I can cut the MTH version down to size and used brass wires for the piping.  If I need to pull some strings at the NCTM and get detailed photos of the roof on 6900 I have a source I can get in touch with there. I have to find my scale ruler and measure the air tanks on my 3rd model to get the correct size or ask 3rd if they have any extra tanks laying around!

Sean, I am talking about the model shop that builds scale model of various areas of the power plants including piping, lots and lots of piping.  If I recall correctly it seems that the model of the McGuire Reactor building may have been 1:48.

If you get  measurements on the 3Rd-Rail tanks please posted them

Ron
