There is a nice video that includes a cab walk-through. Looks like in the 1988 overhaul it got a EMD control panel.

You just got written out of the will and go to your room![:-,]

My wife told me that one of her friends’ daughters need a train for her wedding dress…

I’m a mother…[8)]

Our younger daughter actually pulled an N-scale brass caboose at the end of her train when we walked down the aisle.

SJ, you go! I think you might have enough room on that slab alongside your place.

You would have to park Milie out on the street, but I bet we can get it the garage or the slab out back…

Nah, unless it looks like a New York Central Hudson my mother wouldn’t want it.

If it is bigger than a Model A - it won’t fit in the garage. Millie is relieved!

But the back slab - then the next time the other half of the duplex runs over the garbage cans, I can fire it up and show him how to do it right! [:-,]

Hmmm, does being a “mother” of kitty cats count??[;)] We do have a large backyard, considering we are on 2 city lots.

My mom would be ticked if I got her something like that, my wife would make me sleep outside for a while [B)]
