Mybic - from your other thread, don't forget to get the BLI free replacement shell for your E-7. It has the right color stripes. Like the others said, the Mountain Division was the MEC. To model MEC steam in HO you need to do some kitbashing with a few exceptions. The light USRA Mikados can be done with BLI or Athearn engines pretty exact, The MEC also had USRA 0-6-0 and 0-8-0's like the ones made by Life-Like but they weren't common - of used at all - in the mountains. LL made the 0-6-0 in MEC paint. The 2-8-0's used on the division can be approximated from the Bachmann Spectrum, which even came lettered for the MEC once. For the other 2-8-2's and the 4-6-0's used on the Bartlett-Beecher's Falls mixed, you'll need to scratchbuild. Same goes for the 2-6-6-2's once used on the hill. There is a fellow here in NJ modeling the hill, and I expect to as well once I have a basement. Rob
