My T55 replacement

[sitchad]

I am a bit excited with this so I thought I would post a picture. Although I usually run older units I decided to get one wide-body just for fun. Bought a T55 Saturday, well it's now on e-Bay so today I stopped by my LHS and picked up this. :D :D

<font color="336633">[B]Changing eras is always a risk for me, I keep seeing locos and stock that I like that fit nowhere near 1978..... I MUST RESIST!

Chad,
Is that a Tower55 model?

It's an Atlas C40-8W.

Wow, that's nice. Atlas does good work in HO, too! Just wish they would give us that one in N.

Why the T55 to eBay? As you can see I don't follow HO very closely.

I believe this is a very nice model, however, if you wish to know everything that is wrong with it, go the the Atlas site.

Monk, could you imagine that locmotive in BN?

BN Executive?

Or BN Tigerface?

EVIL!

I can imagine it in the good ol' Green and black with the nose stripes, that always looked good on wide nose units....... Talking of which I must get my F45 out and give that a run......
