We have Bruce's great Conrail opening. Followed by Deano's UP power display. Great shots guys.

These are my newest just out of the boxes acquisition. These are the fulfillment of something I had wanted since I was about 10 years old. I had resigned myself the only way I was going to get one was in brass and given the prices that was never going to happen. Then a little while ago I discovered Con-Cor had released them. Of course I was late to the party and no one had any. Prices on eBay were ridiculous. Then the about two weeks I was on Con-Cor's website looking for something and one popped up. Curious I took a look and low and behold they had some in PRR scheme. I did a double take on the prices when I looked at them. Checked the model railroad budget and I could grab a powered/unpowered pair of coaches for the the price of powered coach on eBay. So here they are PRR MP54 coaches. Someday I may try to get a pair in Penn Central colors.
