Re: NWSL J&L Tank, Another Question
Hi All,
I actually bought this for the princely sum of $20 CDN (which is about $10
USD now) at a flea market where the seller called out and said "You're in S

I was wondering where O L McDonald went. Ironically I just saw a photo of it
this morning. I have the next older Drovers Caboose Frank built for Delaware

It seems Frank built

The only engine of Frank's I own is a brass 4-6-0 that he painted grimy

Re: hypothetical question with a real answer
Glad to hear what I had to say resonated with you Bill. I don¡¯t really

Re: NWSL J&L Tank, Another Question

Re: Frank Titman tribute
If I remember, I will bring a 2-8-0 converted from the AF 0-8-0 from Bill Fraley's collection; I am pretty sure it was a Titman job.

Re: Frank Titman tribute
Bill, I will be happy to bring a few of his incredibly ingenious AF hopper
conversions that I bought. Frank was one of the most imaginative and
creative modelers the hobby has ever seen!

I completely agree with all of it especially the "bring in new modelers" mantra, not the "switch'em over."
