    "Old Ironsides" - that looks like a fun engine to drive along with the
    "John Bull"
    But what was most impressive for an early day loco was the
    "Iron Duke" - huge and fast for the era.

    I think the V-8 engine would be my all time favourite.

    Oh wait, I already answered this thread.

    Can I get a refund?

    4-8-4 Daylight in Daylight colors with full skirting......[swg][swg][swg][swg][swg]

    How about DRGW K-37's! A standard gauge boiler on 3' (NG) outside frame running gear. We talk about people on steriods, how about a steam engine!

    I like NS but CSX has the B&O.
