    Hi, all.
    My name is Mike, been modeling in N scale for a while now.
    I model modern CP rail. I also work for them. So, seeing I work for them, I thought I'd model them, as I can get tons of great modeling and weathering ideas from work.
    I also work on steam locomotive #2141, an ex-CN consolidation built in 1912. Attached is a shot of our loco, steamed up, right before our first long trip to Armstrong, BC. I was conductor that day.
    Looking forward to posting.

    Hi Mike, welcome to Trainboard.

    How lucky are you to work on a Consolidation? I looked up #2141 on Google and found all kinds of information. I've always dreamed of taking the train to Banff; now I'm thinking Kamloops would be a great side trip!
