[quote]QUOTE: <i>Originally posted by tatans</i> <br /><br />Now all you people out there, doesn't the original build of 2816 look a lot better than the Royal Hudson? remember now it's the <i>same </i>engine ( a hudson) but somebody welded on a bunch of extra metal and a spare crown the only thing missing are big fins and fender skirts. MACGUY- renovations won't be done till 20<b>10</b>???? where are they being done, on Jupiter??? can this be right??? <br />[/quote] <br /> <br />I personally prefer the streamlined look of the 2860 to the 2816. <br /> <br />I suppose I am biased because when the Royal Hudson used to run between North Vancouver and Squamish, I rode it at least a few times a year. <br /> <br />I have seen both the 2816 and the 2860 in person numerous times, and I can also say that I prefer the sound of the 2860s whistle to boot. <br /> <br />But regardless steam is steam, they are both magnificent locomotives.
