Soon the series will be nearly complete with the addition from Allen of the 3891-3940 series locos of the 3800 Class. The engines had the rakish angled cab front (to reach staybolts without removing cabs, not for esthetics!) and the 3900-3914 engines had big rectangular 20,000 gallon tenders like those found on the 3751 Class 4-8-4's, complete with fireman's access modifications to the cab roofs. Here are some screenshots of the 'works-in-progress' engines soon to be released.

114 Muir reefers!! Now I understand why we've been spoiled with so many engine numbers for the round-house. :rolleyes:

Those Green Fruit Expresses have to get there quick and that means lots of power!
