RMweb Premium John M Upton Posted October 23, 2021 Author RMweb Premium Share Posted October 23, 2021 (edited) Electricity has now reached the remote outpost of Barons Ridge. A Viessman 16v lamp has been installed with another a bit further to the left planned and possibly light up the interior of the hut if I can manage it. The Foreman is so astounded by this modern wonder that he has left it on into the daylight as he watches CenterWest 2823 go past on a test run. 2823 is an old Athearn Blue Box GE U28B that was acquired very cheaply as a completely disintegrated wreck and I decided to take on the challenge of restoring it.

RMweb Premium John M Upton Posted March 31, 2022 Author RMweb Premium Share Posted March 31, 2022 Following the restoration of RMWeb to a new server, numerous images in this thread were lost. I have just restored those that I have been able to relocate on my system so hopefully not too much of the story of the plank has been lost. 1 1 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Premium John M Upton Posted March 31, 2022 Author RMweb Premium Share Posted March 31, 2022 I have managed to relocate all the photos, even found another one. I seem to have a penchant for GP30's... 4 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RMweb Premium John M Upton Posted April 2, 2022 Author RMweb Premium Share Posted April 2, 2022 Always wondered what a six axle equivalent of the GP30 would have looked like, a SD30 presumably. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
