George ... Thanks for starting the WPF and for sharing some great photos of MEC and B&M.

Terry ... Mine scene and the heavy equipment look real!

Sam .... I did a double take, but see you used a mirror. Very good modeling using the mirror technique!

DJ .... An Alco. Well maintained Pennsy right of way. Outstanding scenery and great photography. ... Yep, DJ is here!

Jeff .... I like your U25C ! ... Also, I see an import. Nice! 

Here are some local freights serving some industries. The SD9 is working at the brewery. A pair of F-units are substituting for an SD unit and are serving the building materials company.

This last week I applied the L&A decals to my Rivarossi/Athearn U25C and I became the owner of a Fleischmann DB VT98 Railbus with trailing coach. A Railbus in Louisiana? There must be a crack in the Bermuda triangle!

WPF 3-2 to 2-4-12

This week I realized that I had not photographed a number of my locomotives:

MEC 671  F3 A-B is one of two A-B sets that MEC owned, It is a Stewartfactory paint with a Soundtraxx decoder

MEC 404, named "Kenneth Roberts" is a GE U-18B that I detailed and painted. SO what did you do if you wanted a U-18 in the 1980s? Call Chucks Chop Shop - he machined the frame and shell of an Athearn BB U-30 to match the dimensions of an U-18

MEC 226 is one of the GE U-25Bs that MEB bought from the bankrupt RI. It's an undecorated Stewart loco that I detailed and painted

MEC 801 and 802 are MEC's only Alco RS-11s. They are Atlas locos, I painted and detailed 801 as it was in the late 70s, 802 is a factory paint

MEC 683 F3 is an undecorated Stewart loco that I detailed and painted

BM 1129 EMD SW-1 from Walthers that I detailed and painted as it was in the late 70s

BM 1755 GP-18 is a factry painted Protp 2000
