Elvin, I don't know about you, but I've been getting 600 to 700 MOP related Items for sell on Ebay recently (last 5 months). If it says anything it means the...
Just for fun I thought I'd share my latest photo's of my two HO scale GP38's. They are in a photo folder labeled "Donovan in Dallas" - take a look, if you...
I remember reading this post a long time ago, but never got around to responding to it. I'm not sure if you mean, only the 81" noses were on "all" SD40-2s, or...

I was having some semi-exhausted (worked hard today) musings and started thinking about my modeling focus. I'm heavily into steam power, but I don't know that...
OOh, the Question of the Ages. Well, Brad, pare it down if you can. Steam was generally gone by 1952. So steam to diesel limits you about 1940 to 1952...
Dick: This was a very good over veiw. I have cut mine off at 1959 which will get me a RS-11 in blue and gray. I had many HO steam models during my hey day, and...
Brad, This is a good topic for discussion. I suppose it all comes down to what era appeals to you and what models are readily available. I would, if possible,...
Oooooooh, for the days when you either modeled Athearn , or brought brass , then you modeled what you could get.... Brad, Done both things, I model ( Main...

I picked 1980 cause that was loosely when I remember trains the most, roaring through the Canadian prairies. I then settled on 1980 in particular because that...
Thank you for the concise response, Dick. I'll make comments below, if only to see if I can inspire others as well. ;) This is indeed the question of the...
I just koined the Mopac group. (groups?) I'm primarily interested in the D&RGW standard gauge, but I have a fascination with the Mop of the 1970s also. I was...
Brad- Sometimes, time and location takes care of the era one models. The old "belt line" which once encircled Coffeyville was pretty much abandoned by the...
I do know MoPac and PRR exchanged passenger cars in St. Louis; Some PRR 4-4-2 Imperial class sleepers were painted into Eagle paint, and ran on the Penn...
... I disagree that any PRR 4-4-2 Imperial sleepers were painted in scheme D3579 (Eagle Colors) for join PRR-MP service. I do know that ten Cascade-series ...

I have two Atlas N Scale GP-7s perfect for us MoPac modelers. Make me an offer! One is a non DB undecorated unit. The other is a UP unit but I do have an...
I'm interested in finding information on the Missouri Pacific Burro cranes. I noticed Walthers has a model of it. Would it be correct for the Mopac? If...
My knowledge of passenger cars is limited. I thought some 4-4-2 sleepers got the Eagle, but my mind might have gotten in vapor lock. I did see a pic of a...
I think Coach Yard may have led to this confusion by listing the 4-4-2's as being correct for MoP, and Eastern Car Works also listed Eagle 4-4-2's in one of...
Now, the PRR and the MoPac did exchange mail and express at St. Louis. Did MoPac baggage, express, and/or RPO's come onto the PRR at St. Louis? Because the...

Here's the response on T&P pocket calendars from my collector friend: I only have 8 TP pkt calendars and 2 of them are EMD's ('47 &'48), with the #2000 diesel...
