Photo fun 10/8 to 10/14

[P5se Camelback]

I think it is not about power, but having a cab at both ends of the consist. Too many busy grade crossings along that route.

Oooo! Facinating look at things. Not being at all a diesel person I never even considered the cab location aspect of it ... good point!

[Yeah, I know, I've neglected my continuing education and have a whole lot of catching up to do, starting with the Alco/General Electric/Ingersoll-Rand box cab #50 , assigned the Reading Company's Class OE-1 (Oil Electric, 1st type), arriving on the property in June, 1926! That one I do know something about, having a partially kit-bashed one laying in a box since 1988.]

But enough of this drivel ...


I offer a gift from my sister from when their family was residing in the United Kingdom. The material is British Coal! The scale is "OO"

It's a heavy mother!
