LIRR G5s #39 at Midlandburg Station on the Midland Valley Rail Road
LIRR G5s #39, in two locations Hillside, and Midlandburg Station, on my freelance Midland Valley Rail Road. 
I purchased the G5s in the early 1960's for $49.95 from the original Willis Hobbies on Hillside Ave., in Williston Park. Back then, Willis was owned by a German man named Carl. I do not remember his last name. This was my first purchase of a very expensive (for a Bus Driver's salary) brass locomotive. It was listed as a LIRR G5s, and ran great. I left it unpainted for several years. In the early 1980's, I modified the G5s by changing the lowside brass tender, to a Bowser highside tender. Shortly after, it was custom painted and lettered for me by my long time friend and MSBA colleague Louis Dirosso, who some of you know. No. 39 runs good and is still in excursion service on the MVRR.  Daniel Marra, Sr.
