One of My H.O Scale model train layouts I had built during the 1980's. Chicago Illinois. 1987.

I can recall spending countless hours enjoying the hobby of miniature H.O Scale model railroading during the mid to late 1980's when I lived on the southside of Chicago Illinois. I custom painted this Athearn EMD GP-9 roadswitcher, in to the classic 1950's era Chicago, Burlington & Quincy Railroad's "Blackbird" color scheme. Here the C,B & Q local is seen at work on My ficticious Alsip Railroad in 1987.
