Model Railroading > WP/GN Inside Gateway TrainsDate: 10/27/14 15:58 WP/GN Inside Gateway Trains Author: FiveChime Progress so far on my 1970 Inside Gateway trains.
Need a few more F's for the WP train and a few SP&S and GN units for the C636 demo powered train. HO photos at the Carquinez Model Railroad Society layout in Crockett, California.

The weathering on the units in the first photo is amazing. Also, the scenery is some of the best I have ever seen! ~Steve Date: 10/27/14 20:45 Re: WP/GN Inside Gateway Trains Author: pt199 That bridge in the background looks fabulous, I'd like to see more pictures of just that!

That looks like a rare Leslie S5D fivechime on the lead FP7 in the 2nd pic of the Genesis WP units :-) Do I see an SP&S C636 in your motive power fleet soon? Those Bruts had a look all to their own like the Demo units. Gary Edited 1 time(s). Last edit at 10/28/14 09:19 by P5r24. Date: 10/28/14 19:56 Re: WP/GN Inside Gateway Trains Author: PHall To the best of my knowledge the WP FP7's had Nathan M5 air horns on the engineer's side and a Leslie A200 facing the rear on the Fireman's side.
Date: 10/29/14 11:26 Re: WP/GN Inside Gateway Trains Author: FiveChime 804-A and 805-D had prototype Leslie S5D horns. Only two of which are known to exsist today.
The S5D was Leslie's attempt to create the Nathan M5 sound. REgards, Jim Evans Date: 10/29/14 18:24 Re: WP/GN Inside Gateway Trains Author: FiveChime Leslie S5D from 804-A.
