Post your non-O scale stuff here!
I just received my new Alco S4 in G scale for my little outdoor layout from Charles Ro. It looks great, and I’ll be taking it for a test run this afternoon. A little assembly required with the hand rails, and will try the provided couplers until I get Kadees for it.

That's a good lookin' loco. Congrats on the purchase. Any chance of taking a short video to see it run?
You bet, Brian! I was about to, when I took the photos, but a thunderstorm popped up, and I thought, nope! Maybe tomorrow; stand by!
Color me a sucker for end cab switchers, and Alco in particular. Looks great!
NICE aquisition! ENJOY!
As promised, here’s a short video of the new Alco S4 on my little outdoor layout. Although nicely detailed with directional lights, opening cab doors, and dash board, I think I may need to get sound for it.
By the way, this shipped from Charles Ro on Tuesday, and I received it Thursday. Great service from a forum sponsor!
A 1955 Buick Century police car gets ready to cross the tracks, now that a short freight has passed on my G gauge layout.
Artie, looks great. I have the same in Jersey Central and it has run flawlessly for several years; lots of enjoyment. Charles Ro is also great for help and parts. all the best!
It’s a great runner, CMac. Very quiet and smooth. I installed Kadee couplers to run with the rest of my cars. Best to you, as well.
