OUCH!!
I'll be the first to admit that the CW 684 LOOKS really nice...it's hard to beat a CEECO paint job...but its also hard to beat the rumble she used to make as that turbocharged V-8 ALCO came at you in run 8.
My collection will always have that empty spot on the track dedicated to "the one that got away"!
May she rest in peace once (if ever) she arrives at Dacca Park.
