Here are some photos of some interesting postwar single dome tankers and a caboose that I picked up and ran at the Great Train Show in Pomona, CA. We had a lot of fun!

A nice 2035 I picked up from a Forum member this week!
You might want to reposition the eccentric crank on this loco. They are supposed to point generally towards the center of the axle. The way yours points away from the axle will cause the eccentric rods to travel too far and will probably break the eccentric crank.
Thank you, Scott, for starting this up! It is my favorite thread of the week.....

...Have a safe and great weekend, everyone!

I always like to arrive at the office and have a train package waiting for me. Brightens up the whole day.

Working under the layout, I was reminded that i own this nice O27 starter set from 1962 (New Haven, of course!)

Wow, nice office, I am truly humbled my friend. My office is no nearly as elegant. Ok, what is in the box?

John,
It is a MTH PREMIER N&W J set. Peter posted earlier in this thread or another, can't remember. Sorry I'm getting old.
Weaver Models made the DuPont ALATHON plastic pellet ACF Center Flow 4-bay covered hoppers in two variations. I found them at two model railroad shows.
