Dear friends:
Dear friends:


Here we have the first updated roster since May.
My forecast from a year ago turns out to be pretty much correct: This is the first
update of the directory since 30 December 2021.


A few new locos still came trickling in, which puts us up to 591 total. Most of the work has been in updating existing files. We nevertheless have a few interesting newbies: a #999
The really great news for 2022 amongst all the bad: Chuck Balmer’s 6-8-6 PRR
turbine is complete. What a beauty! I understand it may still need some running-in.


4-4-0 completed in 1903 (440.NYC999.Brandow), one more Big Boy (4884.UP4000.Young) and even a British 2-10-0 with a Franco-Crosti boiler (2100.BR92021.Wood)! Keith Wood of the Montreal Live Steamers is doing some amazing and complex work.
We’re now up to 684 locos - about 33 more than last year. I’ve also replaced 20 or so
loco photos with higher-quality ones.


I repeat: Removing the glitches and errors is a constant task – I’m always happy for any and all additions and corrections.
Yes, I quake when I think of all the possibilities for misinformation in such a directory.
What is one to do? I do as well as I can with mostly written sources, wading through old
magazines and even googling obituaries. Sadly, I don’t have Pat Fahey, [[Steve Bratina]] or Jim
Leggett living next door.


A special thanks to Pat Fahey and Bob Nawa for their contributions to this update.
In closing a word from our non-sponsor: Bruce Hope from Greater London has done
wonderful work for me and is open to taking on tasks from other hobbyists. If you would like
to get in contact with him, drop me a line.


Very sad that [[Fisher Detail Foundry|Larry Fisher]] and Mike Boucher have passed from us.
May our world very soon enjoy much greater peace.


Wishing all nevertheless a happy Christmas and New Year,
All the best for the Christmas season,


Bill Yoder

The Registry

Russia, Kaliningrad region

30 November 2022

Dear friends:

My forecast from a year ago turns out to be pretty much correct: This is the first update of the directory since 30 December 2021.

The really great news for 2022 amongst all the bad: Chuck Balmer’s 6-8-6 PRR turbine is complete. What a beauty! I understand it may still need some running-in.

We’re now up to 684 locos - about 33 more than last year. I’ve also replaced 20 or so loco photos with higher-quality ones.

Yes, I quake when I think of all the possibilities for misinformation in such a directory. What is one to do? I do as well as I can with mostly written sources, wading through old magazines and even googling obituaries. Sadly, I don’t have Pat Fahey, Steve Bratina or Jim Leggett living next door.

In closing a word from our non-sponsor: Bruce Hope from Greater London has done wonderful work for me and is open to taking on tasks from other hobbyists. If you would like to get in contact with him, drop me a line.

May our world very soon enjoy much greater peace.

All the best for the Christmas season,

Bill Yoder
