My LOTW for this week will be my Tyco Santa Fe GP20. This unit is in pristine condition, and runs overall pretty well for it's age. I have a bid in on a lot that will provide a set of black plastic handrails for it, which out to look great. I purchased a bottle of labelle oil, and plan to oil it once that arrives. I'm thinking 3 in 1 oil is too thin, however it ought to be okay for what little I put on my units.

Nice GP20, Aaron! Yes, Labelle is much better than 3 in 1 oil, in fact, I use it on every locomotive I get. 
My LOTW offering is this AHM Union Pacific C-Liner #1041. I got this one pretty cheap, without glass or horns. I had a junk shell lying around, which provided the parts to restore this C-Liner to its former glory. I just love AHM's "cheezy" design on their C-Liners.

That is a beautiful little diesel. I hope you have a few Tyco Hooker tank cars to go with it. I love Tyco's Hooler Chemicals paint scheme.
Based on the engineering ethics case study I was shown about Hooker Chemical Co. I'd say there's only one thing you gotta do. You got to dig a big ditch in the midst of Armodilloville. Bury a bunch of 'barrels o' colorful liquid', then sell it to Armodilloville so they can build a school and a few neighborhoods on top of it.

Anyone like BN locos? 
I found this one at antique / flea market.
It is a dummy, and I didn't check the price, as it was in a room full of clocks, and the ticking could drive you batty!
