Very nice, Kim.  The Soo is (was) a midwestern line, and so that and the Milwaukee
Road are my favorite lines to model.  I see you decided to model in purgatory

rather challenging.

As far as pics of B units go, try the Soo fan site:  http://www.sooline.org/  They

I'm trying to figure out if I have enough of the right pieces to build a B
uint to go with it.  I think that would be really neat looking!   Does
anybody know where I can get some pictures of the F7 B units?  In the same
road name and color scheme woudl be best, but I'll settle for anything right
now.  I've only found one rather curmmy picture of a B unit so far.  Any
help would be appreciated.

And let me know what you think of the A unit I just put up on my site! :)

Thanks,
Kim
