Nice COX loco, Chops!!
Here's my LOTW addition:
A nice Tyco Santa Fe "Warbonnet" Plymouth switcher (I actually thought about getting one of these for RETRO TYCO for a while, but just couldn't find the right price or quality.) This one was $20 at the Nicholas Smith Train Store - snagged.

The detail is stupendous. This loco set the excellent bar up, way up. A fantastic locomotive. It just looks so very real. I am amazed!

Actually, that's kind of a cool old piece, Busss! What do you date it to?
I find it curious that it is made to be a floor runner, but the wheels
all have deep flanges.
