Post your non-O scale stuff here!
An A-B-A set of Penn Line Northern Pacific F units. Athearn shells with a Penn Line drive and Fleischmann couplers. I replaced the powered A unit drive with an Athearn drive to get a good running engine.
Got a set of Fleischmann American cars to provide a train. I've also retrucked some Tyco cars, just like Penn Line did.

My father is a big collector of Penn Line trains. He has several of the passenger sets including the North Coast Limited inspired passenger set and the oh so prototypical NP GG1 that Penn Line offered for some time.
Nice idea to put an Athearn drive into them to help the running qualities. My Penn Line F7 has split at the nose which is fairly common for these as I understand.

How is the scale on the Penn Line? On the money for HO or to large etc?
Thanks
Penn Line HO is correctly scaled for HO.
