Hi Clint,
Here are three shots that may help. I am leaning towards a Fairmont from
your photos. From all of the posts it seems that there are some that
play with real cool railroad toys. Me thinks it would also be a way cool
stationary engine. If you need more photos let me know. Train museum is
just down the road, and I'll take any excuse to go there. :-))
