    Kato 176-6035.

    My new favorite P42.

    Ordered nine months apart, they arrived the same day.

    They earned the white glove treatment.

    Although the real #100 has made regular visits to this area, I still haven't seen it in person.

    I joked on a local railfan group that the only way I was going to see one was to buy this model...

    If you buy it, it will come [again].

    I don't believe this one has taken the Empire Builder route, as I haven't seen it either, but it's on my list!!!
    Nice model!

    That is one of the ones I got #100, and I have the other Blue 108 on the way.

    I will get the last two when they are available. These are my favorite locomotives, and it is not because of Amtrak, it is because they are excellent running locomotives and Amtrak is along for the ride. I have a love of passenger trains of all roads.
