Brings back memories of my days living in Pittsburgh. When that train was running I doubt that the air was that clear. They say that you used to have to change a white shirt by noon because the air was so dirty. I guess you might as well have smoked as it probably didn't make any difference.

Nice looking train. But the slag thimble is way too clean. They never looked like that unlessthey were brand new and arrived from the manufacturer.

Patricks Trains in Wheeling, WV has a complete lineup of Weirton Steel locos and rolling stock. He has them listed on his website and sells through the internet. Great dealer, I have been buying from Pat & his wife for a few years with no issues.
