Decided to finish a lionel 260e loco and tender. My late father purchased and started the restoration project over 15 years ago..... he has been gone for over 12 years ago. I have now repainted the loco & tender.  Starting to apply trim and making a list to see hat i need to order.  A20160327_090747

 

Will be nice to see this loco up and running

I wish I had an update on progress of this project..... but it has been stalled.  I was missing two copper journal covers for the tender truck, so I ordered some from a on-line parts dealer with other parts..... well order came in no caps..... called them talked to an employee, he took my info.... said his dad or brother packed the part orders and they would call me........ they never did.....  last time I ever order from them........   ordered caps from a different dealer...... usps lost package, however this dealer has been in contact with me the whole process..... they will have a new customer for a long time,   Thumbs up to trains-in-the-attic on ebay

Hi Mike,  Nice job on the 260E.  I also have one in process and am curious what shade of Green you used for the frames?  Looks like Hunter green, but just want to confirm.  Just for fun here is a pic of my 260E when I first got it.....  I had been stalled waiting on a tender, however I just picked a couple up and o maybe I can get to work on this and see if it is possible to finish the job lol
