New Additions - LiveSteamer - 02-20-2010

Over the past week I was looking at Ebay for a few items. I did manage to find a Western Maryland Boxcar, PRR Caboose & a Jennyville Tower. I then went to a hobby shop website and found a Chessie System GP38-2 & Chessie System Boxcar. So I still had to itch and I bought them both. I didn't recieve them yet in the mail. Then yesterday I went to the hobby shop and was browsing around and found a New Haven Caboose & two tunnel portals ( the only two left ) so I picked them up as well. Below are pictures of the Boxcar, Tower, NH Caboose, & Tunnel Portals.

Here we have the GP38-2 posing next to the new yard tower that will direct trains into and out of the staging yard. I do have a plan that a buddy had drawn up for me and the staging yard will basically be your normal yard. I have plans to expand the layout in a couple of years once I get this section done.

Also here is a picture of the completed tower without the train in front of it.

Classic tower! Wouldn't mind having one of those on the layout. Thumbsup

Sweet...Santa Fe style caboose with New Haven markings!
Hope the NHRHTS don't find out. They had a problem with my SD70, and C44-9W painted up like NH locos...
