Scott, I also have a Western Maryland FA1, with the speed lettering on it. She was a show engine from a later ECLSTS the the RS3. The FA1 is a shelf queen, I have never run her, and she doesn’t appear on the P&CS roster. I didn’t want her, but I won her as a prize, so she is on permanent display on my display shelves.
I’d really like to see a photo of that FA-1 if you can find the time to post it.
Thanks!
Scott
Scott just for you I had the shop crews drag the FA1 off the display floor and out into the sunlight. The shop crews used a new to us Critter to drag the FA1 from its slumber.

The shop crews didn’t think these photos did her justice, so they had Phil Thee dust her off a bit. Then we shot a few more photos.
LOL
Good job by Phil Thee !
Sean, Phil is the company janitor/cleaning person.
Is he the bloke with a cousin at the Lee Kee shipyard ?

Hey we have that same critter for our yet-to-be-finished switching layout to take to shows. No puzzle just track like in a real life industrial district.
PS I have to fess up, other than my precious RhB equipment we have a few other items floating around.

No, Phil isn’t Chinese.
We have a cast of Characters here. There is Sam “Smokey” Black, my lead engineer, Charles “Chuck” Black, his brother and lead fireman, Tom Morrow, the shop foreman and me.
No David , of course he isn’t , otherwise you’d call him Firru .
Stranger things have happened in families you know .
Mike
Mike, huh? Its Phil Thee, as in filthy, and he is the company janitor/cleaning person.
David, Mike gets your joke. Its you who missed his joke about the Lee Kee Shipyard. I think that I would hesitate to take my ship there, it might no longer be watertight.
Steve I got that joke. Its calling Phil Firru that I don’t understand.
