Amazing what happened to my simple request for any photos of a completed
Westerfield GKa.  The good news is that apparently there's more interest in
these gons than I thought, which means that if this book ever gets done we
can sell more than 10 copies.  Now, in addition to some of the Train Shed
cycs, I just saw a diagram for underbody detail including the braking
system in that article from Model Railroader October 1974 John Munson's
article.  Stipulation: that's a VGN gon that he's building, but I wonder
how much difference there is in the dual braking systems.

Eric, I hope you're thinking about coming to the NWHS convention in
Pikevile or the Virginian gang get together in October at Twin Falls and
introducing yourself to the rest of us......enthusiasts.
