ATSF Valley Flyer 4-6-2 by IHC. I installed DCC in this one and it's a good runner. It'll pull four Athearn heavyweights up a 3% grade, which is all that I need it to pull.

Once I got through the LCBO paper exterior and figured out which way was up it didn't take me long . It was just a matter of taking all the smaller boxes out of the larger boxes

It's sort of like opening those Russian nesting dolls, or a Chinese puzzle box.
