<b><font color="blue">Jonathon,</font id="blue"></b> <br /> <br />The TSBY #385 picture that you published, is one that I was on, and took pictures of. The only problem is, I can't find my library of RR photos since I moved. They still may be at the storage unit. I may also be able to post it, in it's original colors. I used to live in Howell MI, and the TSBYs track ran right through town. I don't know if they did it with all of the Loco's, but where they could, they kept the same ID Numbers after the repaint. <br /> <br />You seem to know a lot about the TSBY. Where do you live??? I could see the trains go by, down at the end of my street. (In Howell) Some times there would be as high as six Loco's on one train hauling covered hoppers. They move a lot of hoppers. They're also a great bunch of guys as well. <br />[quote]QUOTE: As for the GP35 with Alco trucks, every TSBY (Tuscola & Saginaw Bay RR) GP35 has them. Infact, except for an NW2, every locomotive TSBY has is a GP35! 7 are ex Ann Arbor low nose units that have Alco trucks and traction motors from the FAs that were used as trade-in credit at EMD.[/quote] I concur 100%. <br /> <br />The TSBY would be an excellent choice for a bedroom layout. It's a well run short line. <br /> <br />Later, <br />Bill North [^]
