You can imagine how excited I was when this arrived in the mail and that the seller had used a wrong pic when I bid on it.

Someone over lubricated that so I had to clean Her down. Mike Huron Locomotive Works

That is a nice locomotive, but you know what catches my eye? That little plastic crossing shack. Some of those inexpensive plastic things are so detailed and cool.
