It was a classic, and still is.   I'll take Goose # 5 on a snowy day.

  Much as I admire the J-1, and much as I respect Ed and John, I maintain that 
the Southern Railway Ps-4 is the most beautiful steam locomotive ever made. 
Essentially no chance one will ever show up in S due to small numbers of SR 
adherents, but I harbor the fantasy of kitbashing one with an Overland light 
pacific drivetrain as starting point. Actually my best hope is probably to find 
a craftsman to do the kitbashing for me, as such a project is beyond the scope 
of my skills.

  Wellsir, my drum is 36% larger than those HO drums. And those HO guys have
  a J-1 Hudson. So why shouldn't we in S have one also? Consider this a
  request for "indications of interest" for a Boo-Rim brass product imported
  by River Raisin Models with the usual price tag. Of course RRM knows
  nothing about this drum beat at this time. But with enough volume perhaps
  they will tune their ears to our music. Are there any more drum beaters out
  there in S-land? Maybe at least 75 or so? Post your beat here so we can
  stimulate each other. Hope springs eternal - especially in S scale. Ed L.
