Old Time Classic Photo's Of The Locomotives On The Roster Of The "New" JJJ& E  (Continued)


An Old Time Classic Photo  Of A WM 2-8-0 on the mainline east of San Marino. This is an original run of the Spectrum 2-8-0 issued in 2002. I installed a MT Z scale # 905 coupler on the front pilot. I also installed a brass Feed Water Heater and associated piping on the boiler. A custom coal load was installed using Arizona Rock & Mineral N scale coal. There is a Lenz 0521W decoder hardwired in the locomotive. This 2-8-0 performs well at very slow speeds and has over 150 hours of running time.

An old time photo of a Key Imports brass PRR M1A #6750 climbing the 1 1/2% grade on the mainline east of San Marino near the turnaround area. I installed a Lenz mini silver decoder in the tender for motor control.

An old time classic panoramic photo of a "Black" SP GS-4 #4390 on the mainline in San Marino. I used the two decoder approach in this steamer. A Lenz mini silver decoder controls the motor function . A Soundtraxx micro Tsunami Heavy Steam decoder controls the sound functions. There is also a mini oval speaker in the tender which has plenty of room to house both decoders as well.
