FT unit

Looks as though there may have been an FT unit somewhere,...by the looks of this one side panel, and a couple of the truck side frames....?

Adams & Son, Seibers

Well I finally got that fellow to drop by with the other 2 boxes of 'stuff' he had. Turns out there is
1) an unpowered B-unit for that E7 loco
2) a PA loco

So I'll try my hand a photo posting again....
(Woops, photos posted in opposing order??)

Re: 1941 City of Los Angeles

You are correct, the sides are a relatively heavy brass sheet.

The fellow has not brought the other two units back by for me to inspect and photograph yet. I'm looking forward to seeing those other units,...curiosity.

Thanks for your knowledge.

Re: 1941 City of Los Angeles

Experiment with image attaching. (I took a few photos of the one unit he left with me, but the lighting outside was terrible yesterday). And I am suddenly having some Auto focusing problems with my up to now older Fuji camera? DSCF1708, ps1000.jpg DSCF1709, ps1000.jpg DSCF1711.JPG DSCF1710.JPG DSCF1...

Wayne ginned up some too so he may wish to comment. Jim I'm reading back thru this subject thread, and noticed a LOT of the photos and d...

Re: 1941 City of Los Angeles

I only have one of the 3 units here at my place, but the fellow said today he would bring the other 2 by so I could take some photos and do a little inventory of what's there. I also have some O-scale 2-rail trains I bought to take over to Thailand, but that is now not happening. Since I primarily m...

Re: 1941 City of Los Angeles
