Without question, my purchase of an Oriental Models Erie Lackawanna <br />SDP-45 in brass which I found at a hobby shop in Akron, OH while on <br />a business trip. I had searched for two years for one through all the <br />channels but no luck. <br /> <br />This particular model was very rare and the hobby shop had acquired it <br />from a widow liquidating her husbands estate. The asking price was well <br />below my expectation, so I purchased it immediately. Unpainted, I had it <br />custom done through a painter for another brass importer. <br /> <br />It is the pride of our fleet. Perhaps nothing screams Erie-Lackawanna like <br />the SDP-45. I still love to see it working our Mahoning Division Piggybacks.
