Model Railroading > Together at Last!

Anyone familiar with Oregon railroading since 1993 will instantly recognize these two. For so many years the WPRR 1801 and WPRR 1 were married on the Corvallis Switcher and Dawson Turn. They were a favorite target of railfans, particularly when switching the last steam powered commercial saw mill in the US at Dawson. I made the model of the 1801 quite a while ago from a P2K GP9, but somehow missed the announcement of the Bluford Shops model of the WPRR 1. So when pics of it started showing up on the internet, I just had to get one. It arrived today and I wasted no time to "put it in service" with some minor paint modifications. I'm happy to have this pair of models now, a Oregon Railroad Icon!

Hey Ted, I grabbed the first one that Whistle Stop brought in when I was down in Portland three weeks ago, they said they ordered more but only received one to start out with so its good that you acted quickly. Very nice model, I'll be running mine with some of my W&P and P&W geeps. Nicely done model of the 1801, great looking unit, I've managed to catch it in action several times over the years.

cheers,

Lorne Miller
