Which brand is that GP38-2?

It is a Proto2000 model. I like them because the details are good enough for me (e.g. Athearn Genesis details are a real challenge for my clumsy hands) and the drive is good too (usually after the split axles are changed and the old hard lube is removed) and DCC decoder and LED are easy to install. They are sometimes at fair prices at (German) ebay.

Your work brings me back to the 70s and 80s. I grew up by the Brooklyn Army Terminal and I remember all of the boarded up warehouses. add some squatters and I'll have flashbacks.
