<p>The 3700s were pretty but the mechanical department loathed them and with good reason, as well as the similarly nickel-steel boilered 1800s. I'd take 3600 or a 1700 any day. </p><p>While I'm wishing, what I'd really love to have around today is a matched A-B-B-A FT set in factory Dulux gold and black. I'd take that over steam. It's frustrating that the single most important locomotive in American railroad history since the 4-4-0 was only preserved as a few scattered pieces, not a full matched set.</p><p>S.
