Ed/Jim... Thanks for the kind words. It was a different kind of project, but lots of fun. I had never done a "freelance" loco project before. I hate to mess with a P-B-L engine, but the price was right and I knew, from having owned 5 of them previously in my RGS days, that it would run like a Swiss watch. Next up is a similar approach to a Railmaster Models WP&Y #73 2-8-2. We'll see how that goes.
