Thanks for looking, Tom  Date: 09/27/14 17:16 Re: Time for a SP Break Author: Bigben Nice picture. Those were the days!

True, it is, Jim. Central's L3a's were as handsome a class of engines, as ever there was. I'd throw in the Boston & Maine's R1d 4-8-2's, as well. Magnificent!

OT, but I loved the looks of RF&P 4-8-4s, as well.
