Electrics Galore

@GG1 4877 - Hey Johnathan I also have an "old" No 8 as well also in red.  Great engine for sure.  We used to run it around our tree but in later years , space precluded std gauge so its just been on the shelf for the last few years.  Still it belonged to my brother and he gifted it to me, so it remains "special".

Another locomotive in my standard gauge stable is this #10.  I also have one in better condition as part of the "Peacock" set in the original box.  That train will likely get the call to run around the tree this year when the tree goes up this weekend.

Arnold,

You seem to have cornered the market on types of motive power – STEAMDAY Sunday, F3s on Fridays, and Electrics Galore…

Photos and video show a recent run of New York Central P-2b electric motors #223 and S-2 #3207 on my 12’-by-8’ layout. I don’t run them often but enjoy it when I do…

I love your S2 electric, Melgar, but know it won’t run on my layout with O31 curves. Arnold

My recently acquired NYC S2. Its had limited run time because the low truck frame is snagging on the switch return springs. Steve Ross was good intro to send replacements but the track gang is dragging their feet.
