Folks,

I  thought the DL&W modelers would like to see my NPP HO DL&W 4-6-4 which  I 
just got back from custom painting.   The original model was  extensively 
re-detailed with CalScale and PSC castings, and a Soundtraxx DCC  sound system was 
installed.  It was custom painted and weathered based on  photos of No.1152 
in the Morning Sun book, Lackawanna Railroad Trackside by  Mike Del Vecchio 
(photos by Henry Peterson).

Those of you familiar with  the original NPP model, know how crude these 
models were, besides not being  mechanically very smooth.

Thanks for sharing.  Can you tell us what exactly he did, and  what  motor 
and detail parts were added?
