Mike, IMHO that E-6 would look great pulling the passenger cars.

Mike, IMHO that E-6 would look great pulling the passenger cars. I'm with you, Joe. Of course, what choice do I have?! My preference is heavyweights with steam engines and streamlined cars with diesels. I realize that the railroads mixed them up all the time. I'll be forced to go that route for the time being. I do have a RailKing PRR K-4s Pacific ( 30-1743-1). If I have my history correct, MoPac and PRR had a partnership in the 1940's where they shared some portion of the Sunshine Special route. So I've been using that Pacific and my imagination!

Congratulations Mike! I hope you find a suitable engine to pull those passenger cars. They’re really nice.

"I think we took the wrong turnoff back there" The first Dome car I love these vintage photos. Curious how they got themselves in that predicament. But I bet the engine made it through!
