I could not make up my mind this week, so I grouped some of my F units together. So here is my Locomotive model of the week.

Keeping the Chessie's going in this thread. This is my friend's engine that was basically left for dead. He started poking around it. I took it home and ripped it apart. Gave it a good bath, fixed a few odds and ends, painted the front piston assembly (chipped badly). And after some looking online I found a company that makes replacement motors, it will have one shortly! Decided to pose it for a shot tonight while its still clean.
