    Wayne's offering looks familiar: Western Pacific #165 is a beefy little 0-6-0 switcher, currently undergoing boiler ultra sound tests which so far, have came back with great news. She should be boiling water here in the next 3 years.

    Photography Game?

    Western Pacfic FP7 805-A at the WPRM in Portola. She's looking a little naked though (so don't peek at her sides :mrgreen: ) as I have a 1:1 scale decal project to do yet. I have the vinyl lettering cut, just haven't had the time nor favorable weather to apply it yet. She can also benefit...

    Is it possible...

    Is it possible...

    I would be PROUD to run that car on my layout back when I was modeling the transition era. Heck, I'd STILL feature it on an old siding on my modern day layout in MOW service. You really did a fantastic job on it. BTW, all my buddies keep scratching their heads wondering what that mysterious...

    Photography Game?

    Ok, how about an oldie from the "Sad & Pathetic" railroad? :mrgreen: SP 1337 is the office car for the Western Pacific RR Museum model railroad dept. and as such is full of HO, N and Z Scale models since SP had for some reason outfitted every nook and cranny with cabinets.
