Hello Keith,
Wasn't around to get pictures. I see that the engine is back up for sale on Kijiji.

Al Milburn's model of the New York Central and Hudson River RR 870.
This model was also cut from solid with no castings.

What a grand photo and magnificent looking engine. To bad the NYC 870 isn't better represented in the 7 1/2" ga world...

This style of engine was nicely represented in 1 1/2" scale by Mr Fred Bohn. It eventually was sold to Carl Hoffman in Kitchener Ontario and was resold back down to the Buffalo area I think.
