Wes’ CPI Car:
Kurt’s CPI car:
Kurt’s car looked a lot like my PS-1 boxcars so I broke them out and gave them a trip around the layout behind WM 726. Including Kurt’s there are 10 PS-1s and a WM Caboose. She struggled alot and couldn’t really pull all 11 cars, at one point I disengaged them one at a time and she eventually pulled out with 6 cars behind her.

Last week, I featured a little blue engine, Thomas the Tank Engine. Now I have another to introduce to you. Lionel’s boy’s train, the lesser known version of the Lady Lionel or Girl’s Train. 
Led by a Blue 2-6-4, no. 2018. 
Tender bears the answer to the age old question… What’s My Line? Why, the Lionel Lines of course. 
Breezing through town with a manifest of cement, coal and cardboard. 
Plus a caboose! Can’t forget that.

The Magma RS-3 sure looks great on the track! I hope all the work on it comes out well. I remember see ore trains going under Hwy 77 from the #3 shafts to the mill at San Manual. I think at this point they had replaced the older Alcos. We got one of them up in Ely to run the ore up to UP’s tracks, but by that point she was a bit of a hanger queen. I saw it after it had been donated to the Nevada Northern Railway Museum in one of the loco sheds. Now I’m really wondering how it was painted?

P.S. I think I still have some Magma stickers. I should send you one to put on your hard hat!
