    Hey rails , if no one can tell me which Y6b (my all time favorite malley) is cheap in price, but otherwise A1 , will you at least chime in as to which ones you own and how they have been to you. I think of the 'b' in Y6b as meaning barracuda.. They look like this, slowly lugging their way along the rails with that low-slung mischievous look of theirs, ready to snag their prey...10-4 ?

    Hey old Mark, Long time no speaka da words at me! Watsa da matter yew sick or sumtin? No its a me isa sick!!!
    I went into the Hospital shortly after our last "talk", so its my fault. You still feeding Canola oil to that old Mersades?
    I thought I told you I have a Rivarossi Y6b with the oiltank ( Vanderbilt ) tender in HO. Yeah it does have a barracuda look now that you have given me the power of suggestion. It runs great, but I have only had about 7 cars un pacjed to try it out with. I haven't removed the rubber tires on the powered axels yet. I'll get around to filling in those groooves later this summer, maybe. It is a little cold to get around in this wheelchair and my cataracts have not be fixed yet, so I;m still waiting on the State to put in "Approved" door ramps. Alwaways some type of delay!
