I had an e-mail exchange with Frank Cicero, who told me he had a pretty simple duckunder oval layout, which from photos looked like it had Marklin catenary. He also had two posing boards that he used for article photography; most of his photos were from those. All very, very well done. I have an IHP F10 body that I'm torn between doing for MBTA and MNCR, so of course haven't done either. The master was almost certainly Frank's.

I'm hoping pretty soon to be able to put together an Amtrak post-Broadway Pittsburgh train.

I thought from one article, it looked like there was some bit of Pennsy style catenary. I remember there was an NJ transit E60 in the back, I was always curious about that one.

I'm not that far from my Amtrak Broadway limited, I'm hoping now that I have some time, that I can get around to actually painting and building the few undec cars I have.

I also just got 4 of the 8 Arrow II kits from IHP. To much stuff piling in! I hope I can get some of it done this summer.

I also plan to shoot an Email to Laser Horizons about some of their car sides. They make some of the ex-Army Ambulance cars turned baggage dorms, as well as some NJ DOT coaches.
