[IraDeathViper]

@KnapfordMaster98 they actually made one i saw one thats brass in google images and i saw a auction on ebay for one or u can get a brass colored 4-8-2 and paint it like Frisco 1522 mt-5 is best choice to recreate frisco 1522

very cool nice shots and angles.

[TrainGuy18]

Cool it must Be Great fun Runnig the1630!!!!!

[zachycards]

now that you mention it TrainGuy18, it is a very reliable engine. I normally use Fred (thats the name that i gave the engine), to haul heavy freight trains (I don't use him for hauling passengers (I gave that job to my i.h.c. B&O 4-6-2 and my PRR K4) I normally use Fred, as well as Stan (my Southern Railways 2-10-2 #5224), and sometimes if I have light or heavy coal drags, I will use Timothy (my Nickel Plate Road 2-8-4 #759). so thats basically all i have to say. ttyl and keep on steamin!

[railfanfromiantha]

Very cool. I think I might have a recoding or two of it around my house some were. My only memories of it are on video tapes.

[zachycards]
