Train Show Report!
Went to Howard Zane's Great Train Show in Timonium yesterday.
First off, the Baltimore Live Steamers had some of their locomotives there, all I have to say is WOW!!!
That AT&SF Dash-9 was awesome in 1.5 inch scale. Had a V-twin Honda engine in it, and was fantastic! They also had some of their steam locomotives there, cold, as they were inside, and a loop of track set up and running a battery powered locomotive to give rides.
SWEEEEEET!
(I have no pics, cause I have a camera stuck to my face all week, I doon't need one on a weekend!)
Makes me want to get off my duff and get my GP-40 built!
Anyway, I mentioned over on the 3 rail fourm about the Brass Bug, and how, when it bites, it's all over.
Well, fellow Bo's, guess who brough home ANOTHER O scale brass diesel?
Yup, me.
(Thank God the Better Half was at the Bedford (Pa.) Fall Foliage Festival
She don't know about it yet. Guess I'm sleeping in the bag, cause it didn't have a box!)
I picked up a GP-35, make unknown, for $50!!!
No running gear, and the dynamic brake blisters and a few of the fans were off, but there was a bag full of 'em thrown in for good measure.
Me, Mr. Torch and Miss Die-Grinder spent most of today putting it back in order, she now looks like a locomotive now.
I have to fabricate a fuel tank for it, and salavge a pair of trucks from under one of my many old Atlas F-9s for it, then paint it in good old Chessie.
My Atlas SD-35 now has a running mate!
I also picked up some scratchbuilding stuff, 4' clapboard, some doors and windows, and a set of handrails for my Weaver RS-3.
I skipped York for this show, I havn't been to one in 7 years.
Two more weeks till Altoona-Bedford in the same weekend!
Then another week after that, the Cumberland Md. Show.
My wallett is going to hurt after these few weeks...
I'll post up pics of the GP-35 tomorrow~
