Some more PRR. All brass 2 rail equipment for my future layout. Granted the J1 never pulled P70s down the Jersey Shore but .....
Couple more of my P.R.R. K4 and Turbine leading the way of a PW U.P. Alco.

Well this is my first time on this thread and I find that even though I rode the PRR extensively (commuted to University on the NE corridor while it was still Pennsy) I have very little in the way of PRR equipment. So here is the best I can do. New addition for me, the Lionel #6454 PRR boxcar made between 1948-1952.
Great pictures everyone, thanks for posting

Nice looking boxcar here are some pictures for you on the shepherd and sheep, We think we got from scenic express about 8 yrs ago I did a search on scenic express and out of stock, item number PR65325 $28.99 maker Preiser, Good luck with your find, did you try ebay?

Sitka: Thanks for the pictures and the compliment on my "lone" piece of PRR equipment. I looked at my collection inventory and it turns out I do have 1 or 2 more cars but they are in storage (another word for lost ). I will try your sources and e-bay. Have looked on the trains portion of e=bay but not the "diecast figures" specific listings. Oh well, I am off next week and will search then. Thanks again for your response and information.

Don,
You are hereby admitted to our exciting club! Glad you are not anti-Pennsy if you rode it as a commuter!
Tom
PRR8976 - No I am certainly not "anti-Pennsy" in fact just the opposite. Its just that after collage, all my military / job assignments were in the mid and south west and hence out of Pennsy territory so I just didn't collect much PRR equipment. I do have the Lionel # 675 locomotive that many have posted and that the general opinion seems to be its a K4 even though the wheel arrangement is not correct. Anyway .... thank you for the welcome.
I did find one other piece of rolling stock in my collection but I am afraid that it bears little resemblance to anything real or scale. It is however from as early as 1915 and was available until 1925. It is the Lionel #800 box car. So Pennsy modelers, here is what you would have had if you had been modeling in the first 1/2 of the 20th century
Best wishes and Merry Christmas / Happy Holidays

I swapped out the trucks with 2 rail ones on my Williams brass N5b cabin, but it is riding a little low. I need to 1) reference my PRR Cabin book see what the correct height should be; 2) add a small spacer and; 3) get some Kadee couplers on it.

A little more PRR from my collection:
Picked these up nd delivered today from the MPC Era. I saw my dad had them in a very old photo I found but have no idea what happened to them so in his memory I acquired another set.
Finly got some of my Cabin Cars unpack on on display been 7 years [packed up.
My MTH E8's ABBA and the Fleet of Modernism along with several front end cars. I am still looking for a set ofMTH Premier20-2637-1 PRR C Liners fro m 2004 Vol 1 Catalog.
As a Oh By The Way I heard from MTH and the P5a's are on the water and should arrive in mid January and the really big news is the P5a Replacement Shells are about 2 months behind them per "L" at MTH parts.

Mark Thank You, that is not all of them I still have some more to unpack and display and that is only the Pennsy ones I have at least 2 dozen of other Road names I really have a thing for Pennsy Cabin Cars and Cabooses .I think I have maybe 75 to a 100 of them total. Post War, MPC, Lionel and MTH.
Here are two photos from my Pennsy passenger car pool. The top photo is business car 120, an observation car. This is a K line product.
A custom interior resides inside this MTH Pennsy diner. I purchased this car, in spring of 2019, from a very nice and talented Canadian gentleman who created custom cars and sold them in the Orange Hall at York. There are candles on every table inside the car with waiters in the isle and some passengers sitting at tables.

Morning P.R.R. Fans, here is my 2332 GG-1 from 47-49, Looking at stripping and repainting in Brunswick Green and adding new gold stripes. Also, my Williams P.R.R. Passenger cars, adding LED strips. And found a site on ebay that sells seats and other items for passenger cars and other items for cars. (SCALE CITY DESIGNS) not bad prices.
