Its was a beautiful Fall afternoon to enjoy running trains in the garden and football with my old granddad and one of JFK's favorite smokes .I just finished rehabbing my old FA-1 / FB-1. They got lowered by 3/16's of an inch, new version trucks installed, all the chrome, brass and silver repainted in very flat black and wired together for 16 wheels of power pick up.They are mighty sharp looking now on the old stone bridge -and comfortably pull 15 cars up a 3% grade - cruising thru town....a couple of 'bos were bummin' a ride...past my variegated hydrangeas --Brian
Looking sharp there Brian.
Nice layout, always did like the FA Alco locomotives.
