Here's my LOTW offering:

An AHM Reading RR GP18 (in truth, a GP9) that I received this week as a gift from Chops (thanks man!!) This locomotive runs well...I plan on restoring it by swapping the shell for another in better condition, with both horns and bell. Stay tuned!

It USED to have bells, horns, and a coupler, until it got dropped by another
model rail fan a few years ago. Being Reading, I felt it deserved to go home
to Pennsylvania. I will look forward to the refit!

Nice ATSF unit, Catford. I've not seen that paint scheme before. A really nice
piece complete with El Paso-like dust!

Here is a piece that was given to me a few years back. I call it "The Desert
Rat." A rather forlorn switcher, sold from owner to owner to owner until
it ended up in the back lots of Armadilloville. Sweet running BB.
