Why would anyone in their right mind want to model Pennsy? No steam!  :D

Unfortunately Pennsy's freight car fleet was so large that if you model trains, you are a Pennsy modeler by default.

I make a motion to reintroduce the bill to change The Railwire to The Pennsywire.

Nah, 10,000 car movements logged for the CGW, PRR is under 2%.

All these roads are ahead of it.

I heard that Kato was feelin really bad about not doing quite as much eastern stuff and was dumping UP and going to do the B&O Cincinnattian.

I'll second the motion!

All those in agreement say "Aye"

Aye.

It seems that the Ayes have it. Welcome to the Pennsywire.

I would buy one UP 4-8-4 to pull my COLA.  It would also be nice to have one decent northern that was in normal black (aka not Daylight which I have) to pull passenger or freight.
