Well done on the slideshow. Can't help wondering whether the Darlington (GBR) Locomotive Works might be interested in a one-off example of how American Locomotive might have built a 4-8-4 Class S-3 semi-streamliner (20th Century-style streamlining with dual headlamp and Mars TCL, redesigned firebox to fix a materials flaw discovered in-service on the Class S-1), perhaps as NYC #6031....
Great work Now you're only missing a picture of the 20th Century Limited, the Commordore Vanderbult and the Mercury. Other than that and teh loud volume this tribute Rocks.
The New York Central Museum (Elkhart, IN) Mohawk 3101 is not restored, merely cleaned up, with jacket and asbestos removed. Glad she and her sister were saved, if nothing else. Nice pictures! Kurt.

This is a decent tribute but the music is a little loud.
