Sweet. Great work (even tho' you "de-NYC'd" it). I like the paint colors. I remember the PGE name from my early GM&O RR clerk days of sorting Interline Received waybills for the Keypunch Dept. Yes, manually. Yes, Keypunch...I digress.
The fixed pilots look so sharp. I've "fixed" a few myself, when not messing with steamers. Your job is impressive. But, I note that you have retained the 3RO couplers (as have I), so I assume that you still use the truck-mounted couplers on your rolling stock.
How do the fixed pilots and your rolling stock perform on curves in the real world of layout use? I have found that fixing the pilots often fouls that geometry up, even on 072 curves.
