Ray, Yeah, pics would be nice, good news to hear that the USRA lites were pretty much stock! (I'm going to have to scrape about every pipe and hose of of the boiler of my CB&Q Heavy Mike, then replace everything from the check valves to the side railing...) I model 1945-50, that would give me 2 years before the GM&O merger, but being that I live by an ex-GM&O line (now KCS), I may model the all-diesel GM&O, then just try to get as realistic steam for the Q as I can find. As you can probably guess I'm thinking about replacing the Rock Island with the GM&O for a secondary line to model, I really can't keep any interesting in co-modeling the Rock, but the GM&O being an old hometown road is a different matter... My only trouble now is finding a location where both the Q and GM&O served, with the CB&Q having at least one Zephyr in town... BTW Ray, just curious as to when you mailed the "freebie box", I am getting very close to having a layout set up whre I can actually run a train! Thanks, Christopher
