SP HERITAGE UNIT |
Description: |
MY FIRST VIEW OF MY FAVORITE HERITAGE UNIT. I was so surprised to see it, I own the N-Scale version of it. It was totally awesome to see. I hope I get the CNW Heritage Unit someday. Of all 6 units, this is my #1 fav. Thanks UP for having this unit lead, wish there was two other Heritage Units with it instead of the 70Ms |
