My RDG G2sa is finally done

It’s in transit as I type. I’ve been waiting 2 years for this thing from Eddystone Locomotives - can’t wait to get some rails under it. The builder sent these pictures to me this morning.

At least for the time being it’s one-of-a-kind…he’s putting it into his production line. I’ve already checked it against a pic from Benjamin Bernhart’s The Reading Railroad’s Mighty Pacifics and it looks spot on to my eye. I’m a 10 year-old in a 57 year-old body!

Mighty fine. Things like this are all too wonderful for words. I understood your last line 15 years ago. The magic is the feeling only improves with age. O BTW, that is a nice engine.
