Title: My version of the 212
Post by: dschlegel on December 26, 2012, 08:40:20 PM
Ever since the NS takeover of the CR lines in my neck of the woods I have been intrigued with the 212 with its auto racks and intermodal freight and most of all it's high priority (and therefore speed).
Here we see my n scale version powered by this years Christmas gift from my pop leading and last years gift second out, trailed by a yet to be renumbered CR Sd40-2.

Enjoy and Merry Christmas!

I think I built that Pizza Hut kit when I was about ten years old, which was 27+ years ago. Sorry to hear yours got torn down, I'm still waiting for one to get built closer than 10 miles from me!

Thanks Dan for the compliment!

Seeing that pizza Hut has made my mind up today is the Bosses nine year old B-Day. I am going to Pizza Hut to get some pies for the party. Speaking of age am I the only one that remembers when Pizza Hut use to sell pitchers of beer back in the 70's and eary 80's ? Nice looking layout.
