Pat -

Since you asked, I grabbed 2 or 3 photos from last year:

Williams bottom; "ATSF" Warhorse top; I used a hardware store torch to take off the major components on the Dreyfuss.

New, higher skirting based on the old:

Since no one would build the proper J1e 5344 in its Century-like garb, I did. I used the Wms brass to streamline the Lionel; Wms tender w/Lionel electronics/tether. Added Lionel valve gear.

Still Pullmor, one chuff. On the list for a chuff-ectomy, if I ever get off the layout work. And get the sound to work again...

(I did not "aluminize" the drivers; this loco is dirty anyway, and I just really like those flat gray Lionel drivers. They look serious.)

David.
