CGW 54
Title:  CGW 54
Description:  Since Jeff's 1950s CGW/Milwaukee Road HO switching layout is still in the planning stages, his Walthers/Proto CGW RS2 poses on his kitchen counter. The real CGW 54 was the last unit in CGW paint after the C&NW merger, and the last operating RS2 on C&NW. The tiny builders plate on the frame of the model incorrectly reads 4/50 with a serial number of 77079; this actually corresponds to City of Prineville S1 #101!
