better late than never

cn nutbar · 03-15-2008, 05:32 PM

hello all---ever since an unfortunate incident at Indian Line involving the Cruikshank brothers and their 1925 model T pickup (refer to Doctor Wayne's thread posted 27/03/2007),the locals have developed a respect for the sound of train whistles when approaching the various railroad crossings all over the EG&E---even though those trains may be long and they may be a little late,it's far better than an encounter with the front end of a locomotive

Awesome pics

I always look forward to seeing the pics from you and Doc Wayne

The local newspapers are always getting letters to the editor concerning those "dang trains blocking the crossings".

Who makes that #5588 Pacific?

cn nutbar · 03-16-2008, 09:44 PM

hi deano,les,jim,doc,and galen---thanks for your feedback---the lagged piping on #4100 is part of the snowloader that Doctor Wayne added to this locomotive with lots of help provided through Jim's research and photos---cnr K-3-B#5588 is from Overland Models

hello everyone---recently the local folks have been surprised to hear the sound of a horn rather than the shrill call of a steam locomotive at the railroad crossings.The CNR has been testing their new General Motors F units on the heavy coal trains operating on Doctor Wayne's EG&E.Here's some shots of F3 a/b/a #9000/9004/9000 on their first revenue run.These locomotives are Stewart models,custom painted and detailed by Doctor Wayne---they're great pullers and ideal on the heavier grades throughout the EG&E---Apparently they made such a spectacular preview that all the employees at Finlay Fish had to take an early break to watch them pass

hi Deano---Thanks for responding---Doctor Wayne RULES

---I'm glad you like that shot---here's another taken just down the track from that location

DeckRoid · 03-21-2008, 09:55 PM

I have 2 Stewart F9 A/B units and I concur. They are just sooo smooth.

Only trouble I have with Stewarts? I lose all sense of time and get in trouble with the Site Supervisor.

I have to agree with Deano: I like that one the best of the ones that you sent to me, although there were others that came close.

Sarge_7 · 03-21-2008, 11:27 PM

Those F-3s are looking awesome

Keep the pics coming

cn nutbar · 03-22-2008, 11:49 AM

good day everyone---Deano had commented on one of the pictures in this thread---I must give credit to Doctor Wayne for that photo---whenever we get together for a photo shoot,it's a matter of passing the camera back and forth so the pictures are a combined effort---Wayne was involved in setting up that scene,I recall him saying "let's take a chance and see how it turns out"---Well friend,it turned out pretty good

I really like the Stewart F units for their performance---Doctor Wayne did an outstanding job on the painting and decorating #9000/9003/9004
.Athearn Genesis also does a very nice version of the F-7,although I do not think it comes close to the performance of the Stewarts,however they look good.here's a shot of #9100 for your review
