The patient is in recovery after having it's brain transplant corrected.  It is currently undergoing rehab laps through the scenic Potomac Valley.


Do you have a current insurance card?

Lol, especially considering that email from earlier...

Lee,

That headlight is soooooooo much better looking.  Thank you very much!  Do you take Blue Cross/Blue Shield?

Is that a Cheasapeake and Ohio locomotive? HMMM?

No, my understanding is that the Cheasapeake & Ohio only owned RDCs.  ;D

This engine runs silky smooth, and will pull Fidel Castro out of Angola.  I must say, though, they still don't have that E-unit "face" right...  The Kato and Intermountain attempts are much mo' better.  I don't think the windshield angles are quite right...

Yeah, there's definitely something that's not right in the windshield portion of the Life-Like shell, but Kato has refused to offer their E8 in C&O colors.   >  Intermountain also does a better job, but they haven't produced an E8 (the C&O used E8s for passenger train power on this portion of the railroad).    So, the Life Like will have to do.  With the DCC decoder, the new LED headlight, the Kato grilles I installed, and the plan to install wire grabs (or at least paint the molded on grabs), it will pass muster for now.  I must agree that it does run pretty well, for what I consider an economy-quality locomotive.

Who painted the red station wagon, Earl Scheib?

[wm3798]

$29.99!  Even did the door jambs!  (and the floor mats, the upholstery and the steering wheel...)

Earl.

Missed the tires...

It was up on blocks at the time...
