It is hard to beat a 681. I got mine for Christmas in 1949. I had not yet turned 2. It survived my childhood (it was my only engine and used hard). I still run it today.

 

That's a great story ! 

It just occurred to me that I haven't run mine on this layout yet.

With my next motive power rotation....

Lube it up !

Paul

Personally I think on my end it has something to do with spending so much time in the mouse galaxy...

How 'bout this " California Paul, and the Temple of Trains " 

  Or Indiana Jones, and the ' 49 layout

now that would be an adventure!

Love the look of the Panarama layout, an inspiration! One of my faves, from what I've seen in pictures...

Poor guy needs a brass pole to get down to street level.

Getting back up?  He'll figure something out!
