Got it C.Sam! Thanks!
Yes Earl! I am addicted to the smell of ozone and postwar growlers now!
My only other Post War engines, were those bought for me by my Dad in 1965, both are sets...an Alco Santa Fe Passenger set and a Scout Freight Set.
I love them both, but this is my first 1950's vintage and man.......if this 2353 is so sexy I cannot imagine how sexy the 2343 is!
I need to fix the front headlight though, it doesnt work since I put it all back together.
Also, the front "shield(?) or Cowcatcher that is attached to the front of the truck and which the couple slips thru is loose...I need to figure out how to tighten it.
