@Ed Samsen posted:For more on O&W F-3s Check RMC Jun Jul Aug 1970 1971 or 1972 Author detailed ALL NATION F-3s to the max for O&W including scale "Chicken Wire" screening where appropriate, proper paint masks and now semi useless Floquil formulas for O&W paint colors. I am sure MTH and Lionel could do a great job on the FTs Scale F-3s and NW2 switchers
Great Job on the O&W 400 series Mountain. Is there appropriate passenger cars to pull behind it? Baggage and Coaches for the most part. Note O&W was a road that served a good part of the "Borscht Belt" resorts in the lower catskills in addition to bridge line traffic and hauling Anthricite coal A good part of the ROW became Hwy 17 and possibly 17B in that oart of NY
My summer camp at TEN MILE RIVER was right on the Erie Main Line along the upper Delaware River I think Tusten was the station

Lionel and MTH both did F units and the NW2 switchers in the past , I have lionel's versions of the F3 with the very bright "robins egg blue" gray color. MTH's look fantastic. Thanks! I don't have cars right now, but I do plan to make a 5-7 car train. According to research, the train consisted of a combine, 4 coaches, and 2 obs. I'm having HO scale decals redrawn to O gauge for me as we speak for when I buy and repaint cars. I used to go upstate all the time with the family and my late dad would bring us along the old ROW, including rt 17.
