Jim,</FONT></SPAN></DIV>
<DIV><SPAN class=062555703-09122009><FONT color=#0000ff size=2
face=Arial> Thanks for the NWSL correction. We all have our
favorite models we would like to see. I feel that Class M, (perhaps with a
optional National Forrest spark arrestor for the Abingdon branch), and an
affordable Class M2 would profitable sellers on account of the longevity of the
prototypes on the N&W. But I really hope we would all work to speak with a
single united voice when it comes to N&W models, rather than going off and
petitioning builders as individuals. As it stands now we have multiple
Class Js from multiple manufacturers, and still more runs of Class As which were
on the railroad for ten years or less, (and useless to some of us who model
different portions of the railroad). And as was brought up recently on the list,
even none of the second run of the Broadway Y6bs are numbered
for Roanoke Terminal locomotives. How many more of them would be
purchased by us on the east end? Getting down off my soap box
now...</FONT></SPAN></DIV>

on, Mason; but I think you expressed it backwards. NWSL produced the pilot
model which Tom Dressler got to examine. Tom took a picture, which appeared in
the Jan/Feb 1976 issue of the newsletter of the first N&WHS. (Also the
pilot model of the W6) Wonder where they are now? Jim
