Hey Guys,

Just picked up another shell the other day and thought I would show it to everyone!

It is another Varney Streamlined Hudson. With this shell acquisition, I now have 5, but only one with the original tender:



This one will soon join the other four I already have here (the first one below looks to actually be bronze and not brass):

So your the one the bought that first shell! I always wanted one and retro-fit onto a Mantua chassis.Looks as if someone wanted a Dreyfuss Hudson at some point.
