Hey Bachman!
I wanted to offer congradulations on your new 45 tonner. Mine arrived today and it is a fantastic-looking and smooth, quiet running loco. The box showed it to be Bethlehem Steel #22, but happily it lacked any number. I numbered it #34, a better fit for my roster anyway.
This isn't a criticism, just curiousity. Next to my Spectrum GE 44-tonner, it looks a little puny. Might it be a 30 or 35 ton loco? Perhaps the 44 tonner is oversized, or just bigger in volume but lesser in weight.
Thanks for a great model!
