Here's an interesting one from my garage sale lot yesterday:
It appears to be a custom. Does anyone know if this is a real line or if it's just fantasy?

Here's a burlington I found while going thru my storage boxes of trains. Still has it's original box, I got this one from an auction I used to go to on Wednesday nights some years ago. It will join my Tyco roster.
And the clean-up continues....

Don't know about the line being real or not. The engine looks to me like an AHM RS2. I had one years ago that was green & yellow. A very similar green appears on part of the engine pictured.

Hi there,
here's my LOTW:
I received this one last week. It's a Soviet 2TE10U twin unit diesel. Actually, it's made in the US by Red Star Railways (they just made a mere 20 of 'em). The bodies are cast resin, the drives are standard IHC SD24.

In keeping with the RS2 theme, here's mine, an old AHM CNJ unit built up from various parts, and a can motor conversion in the rear power truck.
It runs like a Swiss watch, and pulls like heck, too.
