Well I finally got this weeks in the mail yesterday, but was to busy to get a shot or a few shots of it....
Here ya go!
I went to the "Antique shop" again, where I picked up the IHC/Mehano 4-6-2, yesterday, and picked up the Rivarossi Cab Forwards, without a tender, for $12.00! Crazy part of it? (BESIDES the fact its a Cab Fowards, by Rivarossi), is the fact, its a Model Expo, version, with Mashima can motor, and flywheels!

The song was under $100 for sure - they go for $180ish and I picked it up definitely less than half.
The cheapest I've seen this loco and tender go for is $115, the most is $425, so I think I got a good deal at $75 shipped - brand spanking new!
I don't like the plugs either so I'll be doing some rewiring to hide the plugs for sure.
Now if I can just get a clear demo unit somewhere....
