An Athearn GP35 early repaint, missing glass and horns. This cab number belongs to a GP40. There was an actual WM loco, in circus colors, in the area at the time I painted this.

Mine is a flywheel equipped AHM model custom painted by an unknown modeler. The number and paint job are correct for this unit...

Here's my Bachmann 2-8-0, again.



Looks pretty good, runs pretty bad.
Which reminds me, I need to find some ATSF steam loco decals...

hi toptrain,i am very confused all prr m1s were originally m1a,only 38 had internal boiler mods,outside is exactly the same except a few extra cleaning holes on boiler,why does everybody look at it and say m1b you would need to get really close to notice,unless of course you know this one is in prr`s museum ken
this one i must have,but will have to wait till i sell a few more of my spares
