My latest baby...

[Zman]

This is an Athearn 2-8-0 Consolidation. It doesn't belong on my layout, but I take it out of the box and give it a good run around when the purists aren't looking.

I really like the colors of it, is it a strong engine?

 

[Matthyro]

An interesting piece of history Zman. Don't worry about purists. Do whatever you want as it is your layout.

Sweet! :thumb: Looks good, Z!

Lovely.... how many 89' autoracks will it pull?

 

[Ralph]

Purists schmurists! Have fun and run that cool loco!

I don't know how strong of an engine it is yet, but it won't have to work too hard. I've ordered a set of 4 Overton passenger cars with B&O colors to match. That's all it will have to pull.
