This week I present my only piece of N scale brass: an Erie Lackawanna SD45-2 by Overland. 

The model meets Overland's typical high standard of quality. Whereas much N scale brass motive power was not built with the operator in mind, this particular model features lighting and a powerful, smooth running mechanism making it a pleasure to operate. In addition, features specific to the EL's fleet of SD45-2 units including low profile fans, horns mounted on the Engineer's side of the cab and the massive 5,000 gallon fuel tank are included. That big tank enabled the locomotive to travel the entire length of the railroad between Croxton Yard and Chicago without refueling. 

Overland's N scale model effectively captures the commanding presence these units projected. Former EL survivors on Norfolk Southern's roster soldier on right here in my own backyard in New Jersey for Conrail Shared Assets.
