Hi Catt, I just reviewed my old PMs and see that we exchanged a couple of messages back in July 2011 about you sending decals and my commenting they hadn't arrived. Sorry about my poor memory. Thanks again for trying to share them!

Re: WPF 6/6/14 - 6/13/14 - Catt - 06-09-2014

Send me a PM with your address and I will try again. I have 1/2",3/8" & 1/4" high logos. Did you need some NARA decals too? I can't remember any more who is and who isn't a member. Wallbang

GVR logos come in any colour you like as long as it is white. :mrgreen:.Oh yeah, let me know how many you want. I have a life time supply . Eek

Thanks Catt! Will do! That's very generous!

Ralph, sent reply to your PM. Sure would like to know what happened to that first bunch of decals though. I have no faith in our postal system .I won some auctions from a fella down in Ohio he sent my package and it went through sorting and processing in Ohio was sent to Grand Rapids (where I live),the package arrived here was processed sorted and delivered to the GR post office who put it on a truck and sent it to Detroit where it was processed and sorted and sent back to GR for delivery. To make this even more puzzling it is 160 miles between the two processing centers and it took 13 hours to get here.

Ralph, do I observe a small electric locomotive on the upper yard track?

If its green then its a transfer caboose, but I can see how it might look like an electric.

That Conrail unit looks great!

Yup, you're right. I'm young, my eyes aren't supposed to be that bad!

It reminded me of the Baldwin electrics offered by Cannonball Car Shops-

I would like to pick up one of these and either model the one on the PATCO, or go free lance. Some of these things still run in revenue service on whats left of the old interurban lines.

Ralph - that's a really cool photo.

My preferred railroad and switcher on this layout scenario. BN and CR switchers are frequent used alternatives.

Nice choice Reinhard. The new scene looks great. I especially like the abandoned building. Thumbsup

A quite new GP38-2 stands in for the usual GP15-1 serving an industry in the early 1980s. (Mike I got it Big Grin )

No wonder those buildings are abandoned! They're 10,000 years old. The GP38 must be one of those nuclear powered rebuilt units. Icon_lol
