Sneak preview of the 259E


I just finished with spray painting the Lionel 259E locomotive black glossy paint and it really shines and reflects. Great. The pink undercoat of Hamerite was much less attractive, but now it starts to look beautifull again. I could not resist to put on some shiny brass bits and to make a few pictures. The brass bits are not ready yet, they do not have the full luster yet, so I will polish them some more. Also the driving rods are too dull at the moment, but the brass brush and the polishing disc will do their work eventually.
