Happy Coincidence…

Last night, whilst operating Beaverbrook, I sent a photo to good friend Chris, in Nova Scotia…

I was playing with, sorry, running my GP38-2W ‘4769’, an aging Athearn Genesis model. This has been subject to considerable weathering and re-working of sound and decoder settings over the years and is a reminder of what started me off on this Canadian Adventure, that Drumheller experience 36 years ago…

Your timing is excellent as the full-size 4769 is currently here in Dartmouth.

Happy Coincidence.
