Mine is rather unusual, I suppose: The backbone locomotives for my HO scale switching layout are two SW1s lettered for Walla Walla Traction Co. These were painted and lettered by Blair Kooistra and were his main motive power for a while. We swapped some motive power earlier this year -- a LL sound-equipped Geep 9 for the SW1s. Here's what they look like on Blair's previous layout. <center>[img]C:\Windows\Desktop\smWWT6061.jpg[/img] </center> Here's another atmospheric shot Blair took. This one makes me want to go work on the layout every time I see it. <center>[img]C:\Windows\Desktop\smWWTpowerdusk.jpg[/img] </center> Nice, eh? And they run like watches. I've owned and operated many a locomotive, but these two are among my favorites. You can click on the photos for a larger version. Also on board are: 1 UP SW9 1 NP SW7 1 SP&S RS1 1 SP&S RS3 I have other locomotives in HO scale that are not in use on this layout, mainly SP&S, as well as some British Railways OO scale locomotives.
