7556 many years apart
Author: funnelfan

Back in the early 1990's I found the SP 7556 in the Salem Yard. I ran into the same locomotive again a decade later on the MRL in a Livingston helper set. Now I see Athearn is coming out with a model of the locomotive. Needless to say I will be getting this model!

It looks like the SP loco has a red number board on the fireman's side and a black one on the engineer's side. That would make a nice modeling feature. So will you be doing a fresh painted Kodachrome, a used hard headlight package neutered SP or a new to the MRL helper unit? Wait, buy a trio, cover all the bases.

Nice photos.
