Dear friends:
Dear friends:


Here we have the first updated roster since late December.  
This is the first update of the directory since 6 January 2024. We’re up to 710 locos – 17 more than last time. I’ve updated a similar number of existing files. I always appreciate it when I’m sent new info or corrections – that always improves the quality of the registry.


Not that many new locos, but we’re now up to 609, 18 more than last time. I have updated a good number of pages. The 3 ½” Facebook page is a big help in that regard. Thanks especially for the photo work of Jim Leggett.
I’m usually confused by ownership issues within and between the Montreal and Pioneer Valley clubs. It seems that locomotives change hands whenever someone’s birthday comes around! =) Who, for example, now owns Al Hubbard’s Atlantic (see “442.free.Hubbard”)?


I’m breaking my own rules by putting another incomplete loco in the files, but I couldn’t wait any longer – I’m excited. I’m referring to Chuck Balmer’s 6-8-6 PRR turbine #6200. See “686.PRR6200.Balmer”. I long-lost loco is being reborn!
At least in this registry, the most frequent wheel arrangements are the 76 Americans and the 75 Hudsons. At appears a lot of people liked New York Central. If you include the foreign prototypes, we have 82 4-4-0’s.


I repeat: Removing the glitches and errors is a constant task – I’m always happy for any and all additions and corrections.
Are people aware that the UK’s “Rugeley Power Station Society of Model Engineers” holds an annual 3 ½”-gauge rally? It will take place on 31 May in 2025, the location is just north of Birmingham.


I don’t see myself doing this directory forever. Is there someone out there willing to take over the project and make it both bigger and better? Please let me know.
:All the best for 2025,

Keep safe, I wish the USA peace, and may we all be able to travel once more. I hope to make it to Berlin on the 23rd – I haven’t been in the West since mid-Feb.

The Registry

Russia, Kaliningrad region,

31 January 2025

Dear friends:

This is the first update of the directory since 6 January 2024. We’re up to 710 locos – 17 more than last time. I’ve updated a similar number of existing files. I always appreciate it when I’m sent new info or corrections – that always improves the quality of the registry.

I’m usually confused by ownership issues within and between the Montreal and Pioneer Valley clubs. It seems that locomotives change hands whenever someone’s birthday comes around! =) Who, for example, now owns Al Hubbard’s Atlantic (see “442.free.Hubbard”)?

At least in this registry, the most frequent wheel arrangements are the 76 Americans and the 75 Hudsons. At appears a lot of people liked New York Central. If you include the foreign prototypes, we have 82 4-4-0’s.

Are people aware that the UK’s “Rugeley Power Station Society of Model Engineers” holds an annual 3 ½”-gauge rally? It will take place on 31 May in 2025, the location is just north of Birmingham.

All the best for 2025,
Bill Yoder
