Here's an F7 I just repowered. The shell is 70's era Mantua Southern Pacific F7. It's on an Athearn blue box drive.

Sausage is sounding real good!

That F7 really doesn't look like it's 30 years old! Nice.

Probably look a lot better if you removed the pill bottle and the AIM weather powder from the background. Maybe put it on a straight section of track so the over hang isn't looking so huge.

Sometimes a little bit of work can make a photo a lot better.

At this time that was the best place to photograph it. The layout is a wreck right now and I'm slowly getting it cleaned up. Serious family matters are getting in the way. I wasn't looking for a great photo, just enough to show the shell is in great shape. What you can't see is it has Stewart AAR trucks.

I never realized Mantua did such a great job. Nice shop building too!

What's that 300SL doing on the wrong side of the tracks?

The "young lady" that was driving the porthole Thunderbird in "American Graffiti" has upgraded her car.

 

[markdeimling]

Got motivated this weekend and started to work on my river scene, just waiting for the stuff to dry then I will pour the water.
