Oh heck yeah, I just passed this but didn’t have time to snap a photo, so this is from Trains.com.
I was wondering when they were going to get to this paint scheme (and why they did conrail before this one was beyond me)

Locomotive: New York Central #5405

New York Central #5405The New York Central 5405 was a J-3a class 4-6-4 "Hudson" type steam locomotive, known for its high-speed passenger train work. ...

Because my grampa J spent 45 of his 65 years with the New York Central (later the Penn Central) Railroad, I kinda have a thing for New York Central-related stuff like this: the New York Central’s locomotive 5232 heads up a 20th Century Limited along with a locomotive at the head of the Pennsylvania Railroad's Broadway Limited. I read over time the two railroads used to race their most prestigious trains out of Chicago for about 20 miles. Painting by Howard Fogg.

Managed to attend the United Railroad Historical Society's Open House in Boonton, NJ. Despite the rain a good crowd came out.
As always, this is just the teaser post. I will have my extended cut over on my tumblr.

Currently working on a little 1930's New York Central steam era layout, purely in black and white (like the old movies). Ordered this nifty little cardstock shanty set. Not bad looking for less that $10, the owner custom printed them in black and white for me.👍
