Hey Bob,
While perusing posts about Lobaugh locos, I couldn't help but notice that you are a collector of everything Lobaugh, and love J3's (and, I assume, J2's, J4's and J5's). I think we may breathe the same air, and I'm in California too. My purpose for joining this site was to see if anybody else had a Lobaugh FEF 4-8-4. I think they're fairly rare (under 50 made, then WWII took over?), and I wonder if you have one of those brutes. Mine is stock, and will pull the lungs out of a tonnage train if I let it. (I did once...won't do THAT again!).
Anyway, just a 'ping' to see if anybody's home and friendly...
I'm totally new to this site, and may not be able to find this page again but, if you (or someone) does respond, and don't see anything from me, that's probably what happened. My email address is markspencer1011 at gmail.com, just in case...
