Believe that overpass is a PRR thing and they had a name for it.

That looks like Woodlawn Junction to me, and those kinds of flying junctions with box underpasses are pretty common in Europe. No PRR lineage there.

Cool!  Never knew that there was a P42 P32AC-DM* in NYC livery. The low resolution of the WU photo looked like it might be a fake image.  Nowadays you just never know . . .

* Thanks Point353. I'm not a expert on Genesis-type locos - they all look quite similar to me.

Another Round Tuit has been acquired...



Another resin casting that's been lingering in the stacks for years.  This one was badly warped, so good thing it was a composite war emergency gon, and that it warped in the right direction!  I've got the hardware fitted, (excepting the stirrups at the corners) but otherwise it's ready for the paint shop.  Given the heavy texture and bracing, decals and/or dry transfers will be a pain either way, but I like solving puzzles...

Been getting back into the hobby recently, finally have that apartment and disposable income I was hoping for. Got some equipment out to start clearing the dust. I might as well just start sending a recurring payment to Bluford Shops. I'm up to 32 with some WMs on preorder. Maybe a TTrak home layout build thread in the near future...


Bringing the B&O and WM back, one coal drag at a time.

Lee:  Considering the warp, and the apparent age of the wood siding, any flaws in  the lettering could be disguised with some weathering.  I doubt that the prototype would have been repainted recently.
