Here is my 3rd Rail ATSF Northern in its display case at work - I can look up from right here at my desk and see my favorite locomotive whenever I want. The acrylic case was "semi-custom" made by a company named Brickner (casesforcollectibles.com - semi-custom means you can order basically any size case because their website has a selection of several hundred variations in size. It was manufactured to order but quite reasonable, about $100 including shipping, and took only eight days from order to arrival. Anyway, I neolubed the shiny parts including the machined surfaces on the wheels and 2929 looks absolutely lovely here. I am very proud of it, and have already received several complements from colleagues here. I tell people the figure alongside it, put there to give a sense of how big this monster was, is supposed to be me.
