Rivarossi Penn Central GG1
AND
Ephrata Valley RR 2-10-0 Decapod steam locomotive #33 is finally complete!! Once again, shoutout to Darth Santa Fe (youtube.com/user/DarthSantaFe) for doing an awesome job converting the 2-8-2 chassis to a 2-10-0. EVRR #33 features air tanks mounted on the pilot, marker lights, and a tender doghouse - I drew inspiration from Pennsy Decapod design. I also upgraded the tender truck wheels with nickel silver ones made by InterMountain.
  
BEFORE:
Here's a video of EVRR Decapod #33 hauling 13 40' box cars with ease - it runs like a dream.

I agree, Chops - it is my first and only PC GG1 and I'm lovin' it.

This one RP and I traded back and forth for a time. Eventually, she cracked a gear
and had to go to the junk box.
Photo was taken at the El Paso Model Train Club. Pier by George Redpath, I think.
