I was looking through a 1987 issue of Model Railroader (Man has the hobby changed since then!) and I found a Mantua Atlantic ad in it so I decided I would share it for a bunch of different reasons. -Steve

With a bit of work, those 4-4-2's from mantua are wonderful looking engines. They perform excellently as is out of the box.

I know you're right because I've seen some of you guy's kitbashes made from old Mantua locos and they look absolutely stunning.Plus, I've seen those Mantua Atlantics online and they look gorgeous. -Steve
