Sorry, it was DrMB whom I meant to comment on their two in the hand vs. one in the bush logic.
PGE No2, that is great logic. I will soldier on for sure. This is my all time favorite loco. The one you pictured there is a Concor conversion....
I've gone beyond that and started scrtch building my own. I started with a Model Power 4-6-2, (the Concor is way too long). The drivers and...

I guess that's a no to the S13. Oh well. Guess I'll have to make it myself. Thanks for all of your other toys!
Randy, can you make a resin Alco S13 shell to go on the NW2 chassis? Craig
Contact Pat at Trainworx. I have had him mill down the flanges on dozens of locos. Now they run on code 40 and it's cheaper that NWSL.
Hey all. I have a loco I'm applying decals to. Instead of dozens of little reflective circles along the walkways it has diamonds. I have some...
Just got mine in the mail. Awesome! Thanks Sandro. I put a link on the diesel detailers forum. Craig
