Where/How did you get the Scullin drivers?  I love my Hudson as it is, but I have always thought the Scullins add to the futuristic styling of the engine.

The great thing about these early MTH PS-1 era locomotives is that very little changed over the years.  The Empire State Express locomotive came with the disk wheels, and a fellow forum member was kind enough to sell me a gutted ESE loco.  So after a gut and body swap, my Dreyfuss now has the wheels I prefer.  And the old wheels went under the ESE body and now my 1 year old has a "pusher" train to play with.  If you do a search, you'll find the tread with more detail of the process.
