I really like the Bachmann HHP8. This is the first one i've seen modeled and have waited a long time. I wish i owned one.

Great to see Athearn making an SD45T-2. It looks like a beautiful model. Ahearn has been on a roll, and I hope they keep making great looking locomotives.

Finally, a tunnel motor! I hope to see you at the next freemo meet!

Great photos and want to send a big THANK YOU of appreciation to Harry for his invaluable efforts and contributions to the hobby. One point of clarification that needs to be made, though, is that the U30-C captioned CB&Q, is actually a C&S unit. The CB&Q had none. Paul Kossart - "The CB&Q Guy" In Illinois

Thanks again Harry!

As always, I knew I could count on you, Harry, to show the rest of us what we have missed at the national train shows. I only wish there was more good N scale news to be seen. Thanks for all your efforts, ~Donovan
