Just a photo to look at on a snowy morning. As I look out my window, it looks like a blizzard. Guess I'll go downstairs and get something done. Have a nice day all.

She looks mean and all muscel.
Nice shot Gary

Thanks Chris.

The reason it looks like a blizzard is because IT IS a blizzard! Nice models.

Very nice shot Gary!
Please excuse my ignorance, but what kind of loco is that? And who makes it? And do you have any more photos of it?

Thanks!!

Matt--Hershey, Pa.

That is one imposing brute. Great photo. I'll second that request for a few more shots.

Thanks everyone! Matt, that's a brass C&O K3a, made by United around 1980, imported by PFM. By far the nicest running brass loco I own. Here are a couple more shots of it, two were posted previously.

With a face like that, it has to be C&O...2341...a K3a, Alco, heavy Mikado. :thumb: :thumb: and you posted the rest of the pic's while I was replying, Nice shots!

That was Bachmann, and they arrived from Peachcreek Shops two days ago! With the drydock project, and the Ntrak mod for Val's BBQ/modular meet, it might be a while before any more progress happens with turning the Athearns into K2s.

Great photos of a loco with a very businesslike look. Thanks for posting them! Merry Christmas.

If it runs half as good as it looks, it's gotta be a winner!:thumb:
Great stuff, Gary!
