Ed Pinkley......I think you are the King of Nscale loco nuts....how much of a 2nd mortgage did you have to take out to aquire that empire?? Mike
According to my wife it is too much.But to me it is not enough.I have 10 b30's on order in BN and 2 in ATSF.For once I would like to see some steam so I can focus on the new deluxe road railers in the swift and schnider series.I won't get into how many swift trailers I have comming.
Alas, my list isn't as long as it used to be, but at least what I have is "QUALITY". Here's the Current "Chilli-Division's" Roster: 1 Kato SD40-2 Santa Fe 2 Kato SD45 Santa Fe 1 Kato C30-7 Santa Fe 2 Atlas/Kato GP30 Santa Fe 4 Atlas GP38 Santa Fe 1 Atlas GP38 GM&O That's all I have...but it's all GOOD! PS: Hey Ed! RoyalBlue says he has as many MiniTrix F's as your entire fleet! And that is just his MiniTrix's, it doesn't include his "other" loco's... Recently added to the fleet (updated 08-29-02) 1 Kato U28C (U30C) Santa Fe (in Dress Blues) 1 Atlas GP35 Santa Fe 1 LifeLike GP20 Santa Fe Hey, we're small but mighty! [ 29.

I'll have to give you guys my wife's list when my fingers recover from the keyboard [ 29 July 2001: Message edited by: BNSF7173 ]</p>

Since I now have a mainline completed on my layout, I thought I would add my small roster to this topic. Atlas GP9 (SP 3767) Atlas SD7-currently unpainted and disassembled 2 Kato GP50's (UP 5537 and 5542) Kato GP38-2 (UP 1961) Kato SD40 (SP 8580) Kato SD40 (UP 4767) Kato SD40-2 (EMD 6047) Kato SD40-2 snoot (UP 3401) Kato C44-9W (UP 9702) Atlas SD60M (UP 6217) Kato SD90MAC (UP 8059) 2 each Bachmann C40-8 and C40-8W's (in the "shops") I hope to make 2-3 good running units out of them. Life Like Amtrak F40PH (in case I decide to allow passenger service on my layout) In addition, I have a 1970's vintage A-B-A Con-Cor PA set in Delaware and Hudson colors (yes, I know they never had a 'B' unit) and a matching 5-car passenger train that belongs to my grandfather. Hopefully the roster will continue to grow, contingent on the performance of the local economy. Unfortunately, the forcast is not too bright. Like the SP, my railroad will have to keep them old units running well past their useful life span.

<blockquote>quote:</font><hr> Like the SP, my railroad will have to keep them old units running well past their useful life span. <hr></blockquote> I try to think of it more as the SP got every last drop out of those units, and proved that they could be useful for longer then what our American "benefactors" think
