On the reverse side of the print it is stamped as having been printed the week of October 5, 1957, right in a peak era for Schorr OO. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The I think very interesting thing about this conversion is that according to Ed he used a shortened Nason 2-8-0 frame. The proportions came out really nicely I must say. I did my best to slightly sharpen and adjust the color of the image seen here. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"640\" height=\"288\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/americanootoday.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/Ed-Schorr-SC-2-6-0_edited-crop2.jpg?resize=640%2C288&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-3652\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/americanootoday.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/Ed-Schorr-SC-2-6-0_edited-crop2.jpg?w=664&amp;ssl=1 664w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/americanootoday.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/Ed-Schorr-SC-2-6-0_edited-crop2.jpg?resize=300%2C135&amp;ssl=1 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>This model should still be out there somewhere?

Note the scenic efforts and the nice bridge. It is hard to ID many models other than the 2-6-0 itself, but it is still a nice view back into an era when there was an active and close knit community of people working in American OO. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This tidy 2-6-0, Yorkville and Western #51, was built by Ed Schorr (son of OO importer Fred Schorr), who recently sent me this photo.
