I bought this engine about 5 years ago. I got home, put it on my "layout" (which was just a piece of plywood and some track), and ran it for about...

Thanks a lot for the help. I’m thanking about using Atlas Alco C-628 2 rail trucks for the conversion. Any thoughts on this?
I acquired a Williams O gauge FM Trainmaster dummy unit about fives years ago. It has been in the box for four years now and has a few problems...
