What if Norfolk Southern got sick of Pan Am Railway's shenanigans and bought them out? They'd need a new heritage loco, of course! This livery is...
I really like what you did with these, especially how you adapted the CN green scheme! You've inspired me to come up with some of my own heritage...
What if Norfolk Southern got sick of Pan Am Railway's shenanigans and bought the Boston & Maine division (if not all of PAR)? They'd need a new...
I was thinking Erie nose + Loewy long hood. [IMG] Hmm... now I want to cobble something together in MS Paint!
Life-Like's Erie Builts are rare since they only made one run. You may find them cheap at train shows (whenever we start having them again) but...
An idea I've toyed with are a couple of "what-if" schemes for the D&H Alco PAs. The MBTA leased them for a year until they were returned to the...

I agree that it will be easier to use a Z-scale decoder instead of a CN or CN-GP decoder on the BL2 version you posted. I have added an ESU...
[IMG] Here you go. No solder required on the frame pads. Besides cutting a wire channel, I will also need to shorten the wires to the back a bit...
I added a TCS CN-GP decoder to my split-frame L-L B&M BL2, following the standard instructions on TCS's web site. I think the regular CN decoder...
My semi-local hobby shop has one of the new B-mann EM-1s in stock. It's a beast! My favorite locomotives are my Walthers C-Liners that I...
I have a T-1 Duplex and so far, no issues with it. It's pretty and it's stout - mine hauls 12 Kato Budd fluted coaches + two express boxcars up a...
I believe you're right. The Ocean View looks to have never been relettered for BN before ownership was transferred to Amtrak....
+1. I have several of the Life-Like cab units with the metal frames and the clip coupler mounting system (FA1/FB1, FA2/FB2, DL109, C-Liner,...
