This site will be dedicated to the building of two passenger station modules. They will roughly represent the La Salle Street Station in Chicago and the Toledo Union station in Ohio. I will also be adding modeling projects of passenger equipement from several different Railroads going in and out of these stations and others near by.

Detailing a Proto 2000 Alco PA
This is going to end up taking a while to get going. When I received the locomotive it was covered in gear oil. The first thing I had to do was to remove the shell and fuel tank and wash them thoroughly in dish soap to remove the oil. In the other photo you can see I have the drive mechanism hanging vertically to allow the oil to slowly drip off the unit. I really don't want have to take the whole thing apart to clean it. I will definitely have to remove the side frames to clean them or I will never get paint to stick to them.
