Milwaukee Road Switcher

[Chet]

Here is a very old rebuild. I guess that it was Done 20 or so years ago. It started off as an undecorated Athearn locomotive. The cast in front grill was cut out and replaced with louvers and a mesh grill. The Milwaukee Road spark arrestors and wagon wheel antenna, pilot details and other details were added. The motor was replaced with a can motor, and constant & directional lighting was installed. Evan after 20 some years later, this little locomotive is still an exceptionally smooth running unit, as good as or better than new locomotives on the market today. Should have built a few more.
