We just received Alexander RR #7 (ex-PRR Alco S-3) on Thursday. It's a pure, 1950-built, Alco. We are putting a program in place to become FRA-certified to run trains next Summer (hopefully) but, in the meantime, we are running motor cars and are open to the public starting 10/20/12.
If anyone wants to make arrangements to record the Alco idling and going thru some of the various engine sounds, let me know. Jim King President, Smoky Mountain Model Works, Inc. Ph. (828) 777-5619 www.smokymountainmodelworks.com Trainmaster, Craggy Mountain Line RR www.craggymountainline.com
