Please show more road-weary locomotives.

 

SOO 6241 is seen with some grime and rust. After looking at this picture, I need to redo those vents!

Again, show me your dirtiest locomotive.

This pair of Erie-Lackawanna passenger geeps is probably the scruffiest at the moment. I'm really behind in my weathering chores:

Show me your dirtiest engine.

Well, that would be 2-8-0 numer 857 again! The STRATTON AND GILLETTE keeps its locmotives very clean, so even this one is not very dirty.

Again, show me your dirtiest locomotive.

Please show me your highest-numbered locomotive on your roster.

STRATTON AND GILLETTE #857 is the current highest numbered locomotive that is completed. Number 1968, a 2-8-8-4, is still under construction, but 99% done. My F7s, FAs, PAs, and GP9s will have four digit numbers, but as of now undetermined.

Please show me your highest-numbered locomotive on your roster.

Please show any railroad equipment painted in any combination of blues or grays.

I think the Moonlight Express will fullfill this request in a handsome manner. This scene is on the First Coast Modeler's On30 sectional layout.
