Pennsylvania E-8 #5713 heads eastbound at the head of a short 'Pike-Sized' train of Walthers passenger cars.

More 'short' passenger trains, please.

I may have to plan a visit to Florida for the very same reason, Kevin

.

I just wish it was somewhere other than Miami. That is the only place in Florida I really do not enjoy going into. So many aggressive drivers over there. Great food though.

.

I think we are still looking for mines.

.

This is on the Scale Rails Of Southwest Florida N scale sectional layout.

.

.

Whoops! I missed this:

Show me another 0-6-0 please.

Here is an 0-6-0 on the Atlanta Interlocking Railroaders portable layout:

.

Show me a 4-6-2 pacific type steam locomotive.

Please show your oldest locomtive.

Every so often Show Me Something gives me the opportunity to show STRATTON AND GILLETTE number 4. A completely freelanced N scale boxcab I built when I was in High School.

.

I have used this picture too many times. I think I might take a new one this weekend.

Save for a little 0-4-0 steamer that now resides in the scrap box, this Santa Fe FP45 is the oldest locomotive on the layout. I bought it because my oldest grandson had a fixation on the Santa Fe Warbonnet livery.

 

Lets continue with your oldest locomotive.

Show me the oldest engine you have.

This LMB New York Central Mike is circa 1962 and probably my oldest loco on the roster.

I always liked the look of that external dry-pipe. Here she is with some details modified and a paint job:

Please show some stripes.

Here's CN's "sergeant stripes" on an Atlas C-425....

It's my favourite "modern" paint scheme, but CN never owned such a loco, although they did have a lot of C-424s in that paint.  It's going to the train show in November, hopefully to a new home.

More stripes, please!
