Once again Scott Mann of 3rd Rail has raised the bar on fine brass Hudson's!!!!! This is my third Hudson from him and I can't wait for the fourth- the Super Hudson. I'll let the pictures do the talking!!!!! :wink:
Jon--
I always enjoy your photo's, they are the best, thanks. Great looking engines, wow.
Jon
So many roads, so little time.
Wow!!! They certainly are spectacular! But I'd have to win the lottery to pay the price ($1300 samolies).I especially like the #5300.Dep
Virginian Railroad
Dep, I couldn't afford them either!!! My three girlfriends each picked one style out to get for my birthday.
3 girlfriends and 3 scale Hudsons. It just doesn't get any better than that!!
A 4th one and you would surpass the value of my pickup,, and I'm still making payments on it.

You have a beautiful layout, and three beautiful hudsons, like I said give me steam locomotives or give me death. You one lucky son of a gun!!!
Give me steam locomotives or give me DEATH!

How did you explain the sudden appearance of 3 Hudsons to each of the contestants when they just got you one each? WOW, nice units!!!! The engines, that is.

IF IT WON'T COME LOOSE BY TAPPING ON IT, DON'T TRY TO FORCE IT. USE A BIGGER HAMMER.

Boyd, I guess I've been pretty lucky in the truck dept. I've been driving this one since '91 That's over 15 years now without a a truck payment. The biggest expense over the years has been 2 tyranny rebuilds for $700.00 each. But heck, that's equal to a few car payments these days. And yes- the picture was taken just this year. Also thanks for the nice comments guys. I forgot to mention the 4th girlfriend getting me the 4th J3a Super Hudson coming out this spring! there's just something about trucks down south that drive women crazy, maybe!!!
WOW awsome Hudsons, truck I am a Ford fan my self but I do own a Trans Am w/Ramair
And some women perfer the car and others the truck but they are more interested in driving the car most of the time
Hello Jon!
Those are very nice Hudsons you have there. The Truck is not bad either.......Imagine what you could do if you owned a Corvair! Take Care.
Sure, sports cars and motorcycles are nice... but when I round up my dates for the all you can eat buffet...well.. I really need a truck!
BigJon - you babe magnet, you! The only way to make your cuties look any hotter would be if they would have some Texaasss BarBQ sauce slathering down their bellies! Where is your (their) favorite All You Can Eat Buffet? Expect a crowd of jealous oglers...
I'm glad the bathroom is straight across the hall from me when I'm in here
Life's hard, even harder if your stupid John Wayne

that is a beautiful set of locomotives!
Something about those girls seems not to scale; surprising choices for a hi-rail scale modeler.

Jon......you're in trouble, even before the buffet. The payload capacity for a GMC 1500 is under 2,000 pounds.
LOL, Jack!!! Ya got me there!!!!!!!

Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm.....................................OOOOOOOOK. Berk, step away from the screen slowly and.....well......just........STOP LOOKING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Oh, nice truck!!! I am a Ford fan myself but it is a nice picture that belongs in a truck calender!! My mom has a nice Ford Ranger she bought new in 1998 and it's still running strong also. That's good ol' yankee engineering for ya!!
Beautiful!! Way past my price range but I can always dream.
Mike
Jon, I'm curious. How do they run? Do you prefer one to the other?

Jon, could you please send one my way for the winter? The belly tickler in particular. It gets deathly cold up here in Northeast Sconsin.
Doug, The EOB makes for some realistic nice slow running!! I'll do a video of the three soon!
John, You can have her!! But I don't deliver!! Customer pick up only!
Here are a few more shots on the North side of town.....
Jon, Awesome!!!!! You and Norm cut the cake. I got the third rail catalog yesterday with the cab forward announcement. $1500. Ouch! Does the belly tickler have a job????
John, She sure does!!! She's a human auto theft deterrent!
I prefer the J1-e without the shroud and the Dreyfuss J3-a Super Hudson.
