Everyone's posts are wonderful, but Ed, all I can say is wow! I have no idea how you got that foggy night scene but it's amazing. Is that the Los Angeles city hall in the background?

The building is one of the Bachmann Spectrum structures:

This line is one of the better offerings from Bachmann. As for my "fog" I use one of those Halloween fog machines that I got on Amazon. It uses glycerine for the fog. It is fun to use in photos and doesn't have any bad side effects like the model "smoke fluid" does. No odor or residue.

The back story is that this PRR I1sa was in the refurb depot at Broadway Limited. I got it for Ken as a reward for not smoking for one month (he's up to one year, now!) but, it was disclosed by BLI that the front number plate was missing.
Well, I had a spare B&O Capitol dome on hand and I stuck the Blue & Gold on there for the one photo. Ken actually chose a toluidine-red Keystone that I applied to the model, probably the only PRR 2-10-0 to have such a number plate.

Let's continue with first locomotives.
gmpullmanLet's continue with first locomotives.
My first locomotives, in 1955, were an A-B-B-A set of Globe F7 diesels, all custom painted (by my father) in Santa Fe "Warbonnet" colours. One of the B-units was the only one powered, with one Lindsey motorised-truck. When I repainted them, quite a few years ago, I put the powered truck in one of the A-units, as shown below...
They got sold, along with most of my other diesels, when I backdated my layout to the late '30s era.
Please carry on with more "first locos".
This is the first loco I bought when I changed scales to On3. I installed a new motor,LED lights,decoder and speaker:
