On a side note, the over sized headlight has to go and she needs scale wheels for the front. Down the road

That’s a beauty Gary. Sorry to hear about the damage. The weathering is spot on.

Seems like this is par for the course anymore. That said, runs and sounds great. The blemishes can be repaired.
Hope that it is handled soon.

Gary
Spite the damage, she looks like a winner. Don't forget to lube it up and check for grease.

Excellent video, enjoyed it. Sorry to see the damage. Was this a shipping damage you could tell?

Excellent video, enjoyed it. Sorry to see the damage. Was this a shipping damage you could tell? I would assume it happened between Harry and Gary otherwise Harry would have said something before weathering it. Gary would have to confirm this.

Talked to Harry, if it was like that before he didn't notice. I didn't notice until my son opened the door. For this I will assume it happen between China and Harry's house.

Sorry to see that your J was damaged. Did not know the headlight is the wrong size. I definitely agree with you changing to scale wheels on the front. I will have to do that on a few as well. Nice light weathering by Harry. Enjoy.
Gary.

Gary, thanks for sharing your video. Runs and sounds great. Sorry you have to deal with some minor damage at this point, but hopefully Lionel will help getting this resolved.

Congrats on the new locomotive, Gary. It's a beautiful engine but how could any New York Central Hudson not be beautiful? The hinge doesn't look like something that would have been damaged during shipping. It looks like it was defective when it was cast. The headlight and pilot wheels look great to me but I'm not a scale guy so take my opinion with a very large grain of salt.  |

When I get around to it, I can compare the scale pilot wheels of my 3drail engines to these Lionel/MTH engines.
