And you didn't help him lay all that track?!? 

Did those Empires stay with Benny?

I don't do well at ground level Nick.  So, no, I did not help him lay the track.  But, the layout is magnificent.

Yes, the Empire engines stayed with Benny.  I got a rare Weeden No. 43 in very nice condition and a Pericaud Press in exchange.  Here is a link to the Weeden No. 43 from Frank's website: http://weedensteam.com/unique.html#43

I have been hunting one of these Weeden #43 for a while and this one is in great condition.  It was missing the burner, but I already had the burner and so I have a complete one all original.  I tested it on air last night and it runs great.  Just needed new gaskets.
