    I just got back a set of O-scale locomotives (appears to be an EMC E1 A-B-A set) painted for Union Pacific (well, the paint job was started at least) that used to belong to my father. I gave these to a friend of mine about 15 years ago to have identified, stripped, cleaned and fixed, but for many reasons none of that got done and now I've got them back. Here's what they look like:

    This used to sit on a mantle at our house forever ago. The A units are powered, but there's no way I'm even going to try to see if they work (dry-rotted wires, lubrication, etc.). Brass construction with alloy trucks (that have a few bits that are starting to crumble). The paint is starting to flake off here and there, there are a few dings on the roof of the B unit.

    Anyone have any idea who made this?
