Reply to "SGL brass Reading G3 Heavy Pacific mods ....Tales From Harmon Shops"

Since Pat started this thread I thought I'd better check in to keep him honest. It's my engine he is giving the make-over. As far as SGL is concerned, he is correct. It was a small importer, however I think the Reading G-3 and five car trains, the King Coal and the Schuylkill, were their only products. They never made anything after those as far as I can determine. The engine came in two road numbers, 210 and 219. Pat already commented on the engine, it and the coaches are excellent matches to the drawings I have in my files. Coaches are brass, 72 scale feet as the prototype. I have every confidence I will be getting a great engine back when he finishes. I'm looking forward to following the thread and getting the engine back at the head end of my King Coal. Presently I'm using a Trainmaster to power the train, but that's ok, the Reading did also. However I will bump the diesel to put steam back on the head end.
