    Custom built for James MacBurney. As previous MP15DC with etched metal shell and modified MTL chassis and railroad prototypical features e.g. light package, number boards, etc.
    Another 2 to go in this series until some commercial chassis are available.

    Another good looking switcher Gerd! You would need to stretch the SW1500 chassis a little, when available.

    If it ever happens yes. And providing MTL makes an accurate chassis

    Here's the beauty at it's first show. Last Saturday I ran it for a couple of hours. Thanks Gerd for a wonderful switcher. -James

    That was the first thing my brand new eyes noticed at the show. Very nice, indeed.

    Gerd, I didn't know you put magnetic traction into them. :D

    No. It just thought that it was still in Australia, that's all.

    Another beautiful Espee, Gerd. I'm so envious.
