Last night at the Cherry Valley 2 Rail O Scale Club in Merchantville NJ I opened my Sunset 3RD Rail VGN electrics for the other club members to see Scott Mann's newest creation.
One of the members stated she was a Rebel in Yankee territory and it stuck in my mind for a great topic headline.
Please enjoy the photo collage of a fine loco on a fine layout.

Magnificent models! Thanks for sharing the photos.
Such a shame that Sunset 3rd Rail blew it big time on the colors. EVERYONE knows that Virginian motors and diesels are BLUE and yellow.
One needn't look any further than the Lionel Trainmaster to see the CORRECT color.
They really should have known.

John,
Those electrics look fantastic under the catenary.
It looks like a call out for the maintainers is required for the interlocking piping though.
Very sharp electric!
Beautiful. If it wasn't for the style of catenary you might think the scene was in WVA.
Ken
Very Nice!!!
Better check the layout? They probably had a load of GRITs left out there somewhere.
Nice Locomotive John, but my overall reaction was how very fortunate you are to have that terrific Cherry Valley Railroad on which to run it....Those beautiful big curves, and splendid track work are just mouthwatering.
Bob
Gorgeous locomotive!! And stunning layout too!
Thanks for sharing the photos
I agree. Seeing that trackwork would convert the most ardent 3-railer. And there are a lot of wheels there - all powered?
Spectacular scenery and catenary!
Excellent!

I didn't know that.
John, sorry I missed that last night. They look gorgeous. How’d they run on the layout?
be sure to bring ‘em back!
Magnificent!

I like the photos.
Me thinks that my tongue-in-cheek reference to the "correct" color sailed over some heads.
The Sunset's are indeed superb models. JDUNN, you should indeed be proud of them.
Andre
Wow! That is ALL so cool!
JDUNN,
A sharp looking engine on a well constructed layout, your photos are first rate. Also, the actor James Dean (without a cause) would have enjoyed your "Rebel" reference.
Very nice locomotive John. Thanks for sharing,
