LIONEL  O' guage Western Pacific GS 4 class 4-8-4 steam locomotive and train. Berwyn's Toy Trains and Models Hobby Shop. Berwyn Illinois. May 2010.

I took this photo on a recent visit to the Berwyn's Toy Trains and Models Hobby Shop, located on Ogden Avenue in west suburban Berwyn Illinois.

Seen here pulling a short freight train on the stores own Lionel / MTH O' Guage demonstration model railroad, is a Lionel O27 characture model of a Western Pacific Railroad semi streamlined GS-4 class 4-8-4 1940's era steam locomotive. The Southern Pacific Railroad originally had semi streamlined GS class 4-8-4 Northern type steam locomotives built by the Lima Locomotive Works of Lima Ohio, and eventually the Western Pacific Railroad did too.
