Howdy yall! Been posting some on the N scale board and lurking around here some. Great stuff! Wanted to share a few projects I have been working on. First is an ebay find. Runs decent, now that I have it, not too sure I like the paint job. The 40 is my first repaint. Still have to do the hand rails and get the decals. Had to replace the shell do to a nasty paint stripping incident! And here is an old Mantua that I got my hands on. Actually got it running pretty good, got some new traction bands for it, and decided to put it in a high wave scheme. Managed to pull it off on my N scale F unit, so I am interested to see how the larger one comes out. Thanks for looking. Sully
First time in ages, I've seen anyone mention that old style of drive train. Glad to see one is still operational. Welcome to TrainBoard! Boxcab E50
Thanks all! Will post some pics after I get them decaled. And Boxcab, I should clarify that I think I got it running decent. Have not run it around a track yet! Basically I have ended up with 3 complete engines recently, and hope to get 2 decently running engines out of them. Sully
