This old B&0 SW1500 will be around a lot. She has a Northwest Shortline Gear Reduction, and take

My LOTW is Tabor and Waldo's Locomotive 10, an ALCO/GE box cab diesel from MDC. I've just upgraded it to Nickle Silver wheels for better electrical contact with the rail, and after a fair amount of yard switching and three peddler freights, the wheels are still clean.

I've had it a long time, but have only now made a truly reliable runner of it.

Carpe Manana!
