I used to run some of Prowler's stuff behind one of his K-36 2-8-2s on the 1st version of my EBT route. EBT 16 class mikados were a bit smaller but IIRC there were like 2 steam locos available back then - pre UTC days. D&RGW lending equipment to help out another ng rr - I was happy with that. Now I have some EBT equipment to use though most are my own repaints and mods.Since I've kinda been drooling over narrow gauge stuff lately, I certainly can't wait to see the textures on those K-36 Mikados!
Steve, I waited a long time for the PRR hippos to arrive. I don't know how many years I have left. I can't wait too long for your EBT offering to arrive. 8-( Not complaining, I know these things take time. I still use your Orbisonia Station on the route - repainted a bit. I prefer it to Ben Dorsey's version. But practically all the other EBT buildings and bridges are his creations. Unfortunately they're feeling their age and getting older as I speak.
Looks like a Pennsy I1 has cleaned out the lower yard and started out on the EBT dual gauge main after waiting for EBT No 17 and the Thanksgiving travelers to clear the switch. Lots of activity in Mt Union today.
