My pride & joy..

New York, Susquehanna & Western B40-8 #4008 in my staging yard. It's an Atlas HO model.

Susie-Q railfans nicknamed these GE's "Bash-8's" because one has been involved in a grade crossing accident while hauling a railfan trip. Nobody was hurt, but the B40 in question had its front end crumpled.

Eventually the Squeek's Bash-8's were all returned to GE leasing and they ultimately went to CSXT I think.

Better late than never! :D This thread of the week is a couple of months old but I had this pic of Penn Central U Boats in my camera. The second unit without the PC logo is prototypical. I found a photo of one with that number but no "mating worms". The Penn Central sometimes made itself very easy to be modelled! :)
