Turntables

[NW Mailing List]

Sorry to say we have not planed to have any N&W motive power, but  
there are several hoppers, still with primer, who will be lettered  
for N&W.

I'm a member of both the N&W and C&NW Historical Societys, and worked  
for the B&OCT.

Right now the diesel (EMD TR2  2001) is painted for C&NW, as will  
another be painted shortly.

The two steam locos are CStPM&O, and PRR.
