Nice! George would be proud.
To bad the Castle is closed. It is up for sale so the Train club might be done. We still can go in and run Trains on Sat but only club members. I took this picture 2 weeks ago.
A very nice set you have there.
They only had 12 of these. I think only 1 had yellow ends.
Thom,
Thanks for posting. I wondered how the two of them would look together.
I think Kurt is getting the next one.

Yup, next one is mine. When tournament ball is over I hope to get back to work on the Buffalo.

Beautiful job Dave. Thom should be very proud of his recent acquisition.
Thom.....those would look great on MY layout!!!

Brings back memories of when I lived just outside the Burgh! That's my favorite color scheme for the URR. My grandfather worked for them for many years.

Thom:
I’m very disappointed to hear that The Castle has closed. Not only for you guys and your nice layout but for all of us former Westinghouse or WABCO employees due to all of the corporate history associated with that building.
I guess the cost to maintain the building (especially for heat and air-conditioning) was overwhelming.
I know that they “lost” many of the exhibits to the Heinz History Museum downtown but what are they going to do with the rest of the exhibits?
