If Atlas only made these in N Scale!

Paul Graf was looking at my then recently completed bash at the N Scale convention in Milwaukee a few years ago. Hopefully it made an impression.

Damn Jim, I think you might have one of the best rosters out there.

I'd love to see a roundup of your various cool projects.

Not knocking Jims fine modelling but long long ago on this forum when the dinosaurs roamed freely, there was a young chap named Chris (chris333) who built a HH660 on a modified Arnold S2 chassis with a lifelike motor and other bits, also he etched in brass the longhood. I ended up with an etched hood from him - not finished yet but still in progress after all these years. I think the road was Erie.

You are correct.
Chris’ beautiful model shows up in the banner photo rotation.

Can we get some love for the S-1/3? These would make my lifetime locomotive needs complete! Would the slightly shorter wheelbase get you any closer to an HH, or are they shorter yet?

I’m with Charlie on the H-10-44. Very diverse roster of popular road names there.

Might as well throw in the T6 and S6 while you're at it. I'd buy both.  I've been hoping Briggs Manufacturing would go there  Sp fans need multiples of the S6 and GHQ managed to sell all of its T6 kits for the old Arnold/Rivarossi mechanism, so there may be more of a market for a carbody that fits a better running mechanism like the Atlas or Bachmann sleds.


I wish Atlas would produce a Phase 3 RS3 and warp out a Phase 2 C424 and C425 body too. And KV Models would offer its HO frets in N scale for all of the current and past available N scale Alcos.


Oh yea, and an N scale AS616 would be nice...
