California Zephyr Dreamin'

THERE IS NO NEWS LIKE GOOD NEWS!

I'll move this thread up too.

Two variants on a theme. FT's and F7's on the point of two late era Expo Flyers.

I wish you wouldn't do this Erik.  My favorite train.

 

I'm having anxiety problems that my CZ dome/obs hasn't shipped yet and I don't know how I can ever get a "Burlington House" solarium.  If Sunset ever does an E5, perhaps he could be talked into a brass Pullman solarium.  Unfortunately, that's a pipe dream.  

 

BTW - How about an Atlas Colorado Eagle!

Good suggestion Howard - I second the Colorado Eagle!!

I hope so!

Atlas could pull this off.

I have a Coach Yard 10 car set in HO. Trouble with that set depending on era is all the variety of custom MoP cars, heavyweights, lightweight, Budd Planetarium Dome, PS dome, it will be a challenge to really do it right.
Jeff MacDonald pulled off a Planetarium Dome superbly using Atlas's already done CZ!

Atlas could pull this off.

Easy!

I second the Colorado Eagle!!

It's unanimous!   Well it could be. 

 

 

 

Interesting the coupler is painted white.

Beautiful!  What is the gear box on the inboard wheelset used for?  Please don't tell me these have a real generator for the lights!

 

Thanks for posting all of these - I've not seen a set of the MoPac CY cars.  Wish more O scale were this detailed.

Whoa!  This is classic Eagle design.  The cars are beauties Erik.

 

 

DOMES!
