My LOTW offering this week is a very rare Models Inc. PA1. They were only in business for 2-3 years and relied on Lindsay or other mechanisms for power.

| Nice score Sean! I was watching that listing on ebay. I recognized the motor as Lindsay, but couldn't figure out the body.

Nice pieces, everyone!! Sean, correct me if I'm wrong, but the "Sunset Central" is a fictitious railroad... either way, woah, it would have been awesome to see a PA like that in real life!!
NEAT twin "Comin Round the Mountain" SD's, Mike,....and that Ford Switcher is Amazing!! Congrats on obtaining it!!
Here's my LOTW offering:
A NYC C430, that I re-painted some time ago, and decaled.

• Wow, this is a good start to this week. Sean your Models incorporating Alco PA1 is a rare piece that just seeing it is cool. Mike your pair of Mountain SD’s I’ve never seen double heading. Ben your FORD center cab is a very hard one to find in any condition. Yours appear to be like new. A great find BUSS! Robert, you’ve really done a good job with that repaint. The NYC black paint brings out all the detail that the Century 430 is said not to have by its TYCO haters. Tyco really made a good model. And those MU-2 drives, like the rabbit with its drum, just keep going.
• Now, what can I do? I guess not much. Here are my Varney and Lifelike plastic reefers. The ones that just sit on dealers tables while the train show attendees just pass them by, looking for the great find that will increase their collections value. I think they are nice cars. If you look the 6 pack is there, completely. They do run well for me. I look for ones I don't have. There are 7 or 8 of these I bought 10 years ago at the clubs show from an old member that always had the same table in the Gym at the Mother Seaton show in Clark NJ.
Enjoy!
frank.

Here is my LOTW, a Gilbert AF #155 0-6-0 steam loco, which is an engine that I've spent years searching for. She's a good runner and smoker.
