Here's my toy train buddy's layout, based on the NY harbor in 1950s where he and I grew up (he's quite the scratchbuilder).

Colin - The Trading Post Train Shop in Cleveland may have what you're looking for. Their Phone # is 1-216-661-7300. Give them a try. Good Luck.

Nice photo's folks! Jerry- You sure did a nice Job cleaning and painting the 318 in your Truck. It looks very sharp. The rest of the Dodge should look brand new after you finish it. Take care.

Colin, There are a bunch of C-420's currently on E-Bay that are going for dirt cheap. [:O]
What is with the builders out here, I've spent most of the day trying to find some Celotex scraps to fill in a couple of spots on the Christmas layout. Doesn't anybody use that anymore, everything was chipboard. [:(] Oh well, I'll either find some or use something else.
Great photos everyone. [^]
