Welcome to Weekend Photo Fun
February 19, 2021 through February 21, 2021
All Are Welcome!
Welcome! Winter still has its icy grip on many of us — some worse than others!
Hopefully some of us can use this time indoors for some model railroad projects
I've had this brass Soho Fourteen-section Pullman on the paint shop list for over a year! Glad to have it running on some of my PRR secondary overnight trains.

And a future paint shop project showed up yesterday. An Overland New York central S-3 motor:

There were still a few of these running on the NYC's electrified zone from Grand Central to Harmon when I was there in 1971. In later years these were used as switchers in the coach yards of Mott Haven and for relaying trains in and out of Grand Central Terminal. The later S-3s were built in 1909!

This will join one of my earlier, NJ Custom Brass models:

On to more great contributions!
