Jim, I picked up the shell for the slug at a train show, sorry I don't remember the name of the company that made it. The chassis, walkway and two sets of handrails are from an Atlas RS11.

Bruce by chance can you send me a few pictures of the slug? I'm in the process of scratch building a MT-4 myself.

Reading cab from Bowser. The end railings need to be upgraded on these so the roof can easily be removed.

Headed into the south end of Rockport tunnel. One of these days I have to glue down that cupola...

My 4-loco consist decided it didn't want to stay together and I accidentally ran in with two tail end helpers... Actually runs pretty well this way.
