ATSF 90 (Eric) came by for a visit today and brought some very nice Santa Fe goodies to run on my layout.... I provided the motive power and he provided the rolling stock for this train - Here's a pic:  Those brass business cars are just SICK, aren't they ? There are a few more pics of the train on my PBase page and there are also a few videos I'll post in the Video section shortly. |

Thanks Paul!
Yep, those are both Atlas, the leader is a Silverw/ a decoder added but the 2nd unit is one of the first Master line units that I renumbered.
Both have had their underframes painted silver and had the horns and plows replaced before being weathered lightly. I wired ditch lights up on both of them too. I think they look pretty decent with a few mods.

I like the super on that curve, that looks nice, the way the locomotive is leaning into it. Nice job!

Terry, Thanks for the nice words. That is my layout.
Kevin, Thanks! I like using bits of .015 styrene under those curves. That one is a 32" radius and the super elevation really works well. Double stacks and auto racks look really good on it.
