Barry's Model Railroad

This is an accounting of my attempts at model railroads N scale and HO or OO. I find it to be a lot of fun. I concentrate my efforts on The New York Central, Ann Arbor, Pere Marquette, Chesapeake and Ohio as it relates to the Pere Marquette, Michigan Central Railroads and my own Salt Creek Railroad. I am also interested in the Tuscola and Saginaw Bay Railway, the Great Lakes Central Railroad, CSX, Norfolk Southern, Union Pacific, and BNSF. You are welcome to give me advice.

The EMD GP38 is back from repair

I must admit Brasseur Electric Trains in Saginaw Michigan did a great job of repairing my Ann Arbor EMD GP38 locomotive road number #7791. I had run it into the ground and the can motor needed to be replaced. It runs great now and my Ann Arbor freight train is back in business.

The model was made by Atlas and was part of a run of three GP38's from the Ann Arbor Railroad roster.

This is a artists drawing used by Atlas when the locomotives were released they were road numbers #7771, #7791, #7802. I just need #7771 to complete the set.
