I recently purchased a H-9 2-8-0 Consolidation used. It is a MTH PS2/3v model.
While I do own a couple Illinois Central locomotives, I figured the IC didn’t own this type of engine. After a little research, I determined it was a Western Maryland prototype. I decided to paint it back to the proper railroad scheme. I used Tichy WM steam decal sets and Tamiya flat clear spray to finish the engine…
Removed the lettering and numbers with lacquer thinner…
Finally painted the bell, whistle and safety valves with thinned black paint, decaled and finished with clear flat spray…
