I saw this in a 1974 TTOS bulletin. It fascinated me for a couple of reasons; the scratchbuilt standard gauge Bi-Polar being one of them.

The little note from the builder Bill Crippen was also interested me; especially his last comment. This was over 33 years ago and yet the commentary is still very similar as it is today on our standard gauge groups and forums.

Still, in dark green, this whole set must really be something. It's another one of those "Where are they today?" discussions. I hope an amazing set like this wasn't broken up (as I've discovered even I have done without knowing all the facts).
