FRENCHTRAINS posted:Phillychris, congrats your Marklin coaling station is gorgeous, it is a great model and really not an easy thing to find.
This week i had the opportunity to add a new JEP loco to the collection, a classic steeple cab, a salt box as we call them. It is the first model of the loco made in 1925 with a big motor on a brass frame. I have always enjoy those models maybe as it was the first one that i bought when i start collecting trains.
And the more comon one which is a little later production, 1926.
Have a great weekend, Daniel
Interesting about the different versions- thanks for pointing that out. The 1925 version rides noticeably higher; gives it a different look, I like it! Here's a picture of my later version along with a JEP E-501 I recently acquired. Check out my post in the Buy Anything Cool Lately? thread for more details on that.
