Finally unpacked my 2 new 3rd Rail 2-8-2 Mikes and thought I would post a few pics of my CPR Clan.
It was challenging to set up the shoot with crappy layout lighting and using the camera on my BlackBerry but I didn't want to disappoint fellow forum member Nick, whom I brainwashed to sell me his 3 locos to get my little collection started again.
Let's see your CP steam!

Hi Jerry! Yes it's not fair what they offer in HO, but has been done so far in O has been great. I'm hoping for a T1a maybe in 2017. I'm thinking things should have turned around by then economy wise.
Hey Nick! Yes they have found a good home and actually did train show duty a few weeks ago at Heritage Parks "Railway days".
Yup these CP Steam locos are real Beauties Eh? Lol

Can you get it to pull much.  3 plastic passenger is max for mine.  My weaver samhongsa royal Hudson will pull 12 plastic cars, what gives with the weaver.

Ps if you have any trouble with scratches on the tender of the Selkirk I do the repair ot that for 3rd rail.  I have brand new decals that I replace the scratched ones and guaranteed like new work.
