Having just arrived back from my first visit to the U.S.A,where I travelled on the New York-Chicago Lake shore limited and Chicago-San Francisco California Zephyr, I had no choice but to commemorate this trip by purchasing this locomotive while in New York, as I travelled behind four of these impressive locomotives while traversing the country,
I was also fortunate to spot 190 on shed in Chicago,
What an impressive system and it has given me inspiration to maybe do a small diorama of a small loco depot,
I hope to get a few Union Pacific C44 locos as I was most impressed by the size and sound of these machines,in particular around Roseville depot.
