Good Afternoon all

Some fine pichers today.  For those interested in things MLW see if you can find the MLW volume in Ed Kirkland's Diesel Builders series.  Pricy as all get out if you can find it, but good.

work safe

Good Afernoon all;

Cab pictures were taken behind the Erie station at Hamburg, NY.  A PRR I1 is just out of sight.  Also, the depot is a shop that deals in Lionel products.

Pere Marquette material is a nice addtion. E7s are in "full wave" livery similar to what C&O had on their power back in the day.

work safe
