A giant Great Northern R2 Rattles the doors'n'window's as she comes stomping thru the yard at Dogtown.

Dogtown? That's a much better name. How are things shaping up out there? I have not been there in a while. Cool shot.

I am with trainnut that is a cool shot and a even cooler looking steamer.
I bet she did rattle some windows.

Tenshodo /PFM 1969 issue i believe...
Still can't decide whether to install my last DCC decoder in this one or my Tenshodo / PFM N3 2-8-8-0

Sorry the picture's a bit dark here.

Go for it GN!! you can always buy another decoder.

TM, If you are like me, you would have to sell your car to pay for that engine, it's brass.

Well the Great Northern N3 got the last decoder and she's running like a fine swiss watch

Out of curiousity, how hard was the DCC install in that? That is a gorgeous engine.
