Sweet Bruce. Always look forward your Conrail shots.

For this week I present a new acquisition. I found this one on that bidding site and was able to get on the cheap. I had to change the couplers from hook and horn. I had to use Kadee #21 coupler (Medium Undershank) on the rear. The front currently has a Kadee #5 but I think I need to install either a #26 (Long Center Shank) or a #31 (Long undershank). The PRR express reefers are a 8 car set made by Bev-Bel/MDC/Roundhouse. The M-K-T and Missouri Pacific are special runs by MDC/Roundhouse. The caboose is Bowser.

Deano - That is a nice unit. I looked into the DL-109 recently. I saw one up for sale. While I like them none of the roads I model had them. The closest is the New Haven. I could say it is a detour train or a run through from Maybrook.

I will see your DL-109 and raise you a HH660. This is the last locomotive from that mystery box I found a few months ago.

Great pictures! Can't compete with your unusual engines, only a common GP9 from me.

Maybe not as glamourous as her stable mates but O18A switcher #7456 still plays a major role on the Leetown Division.
