Here's one of my favorite PRR engines. The Sharknose is a great engine! I've been following them for a long time but have never managed to add one to my collection. Maybe soon. Emile |

Here is a recent build that has not been shown much. Started life as a Coal Dealer, modified to SMC Cartage, for you history buffs, the name and address might ring a bell for a certain date in Chicago usually reserved for lovers. . Charlie 2122 N. Clark. Is that near Fullerton? I can't remember. |

Clark is the site of the infamous St. Valentine’s Day Massacre in Chicago. SMC Cartage was the business in the building at the time. The address is south of Fullerton by about two blocks. Clark St. runs on an angle. Charlie |

I should know that. The Biograph Theater where they killed Dillinger is near there?

Hello Denny:
Yes, the Biography is near and you can still see holes in the outside wall where the gun fight took place.
Unfortunately, the facade of the Biography is not nearly as pretty as it use to be, but it is still there.
