4617 has been in the Charleston/Huntington,WV area almost all summer with weed spraying and MOW trains. Lots of folks got shots of her.......I hope she stays away from Huntington, though. The next she's up here she could either be scrapped or painted (unlikely, it still don't have ditchlights)!

Does anybody have any pictures of it recently?

How about an allegheny with loaded coal hoppers meeting a 2-6-6-2 with empties heading back to the mine.

Microscale N 60-47 C&O Cab Units & Caboose Pere Marquette. They had these in stock at one of the local hobby shops.

I could do a meeting with a 2-6-6-2 and a 2-8-4! I was just looking at the book Chesapeake & Ohio Steam In Color As Modeled by Dan Zugelter - I think I need to work on my steam roster. I focus on the mid-fifties, but after looking through this excellent book, I just might turn back the clock a few years. I'm also using the book for reference to rework an old N turntable that I bought back in 1974.
