A Walther's Mainline (I think). I enjoy the Tyco-like muted detail and the excellent
drive train and flywheels.

Walthers Trainline. I have one of those I bought for my son about 15 years ago. They are a nice running locomotive that can be found for not much money. Mine is boxed up somewhere out of the way while I build the new railroad. I recently bought a set of Athearn passenger cars for it to pull.

I found my Walthers F40PH. Here it is in all its dusty glory. We found this one at a train show years ago, from a dealer who was selling these and other Walthers Trainline units for $15 apiece. I wish I'd have bought more from him. That's an incredible bargain for such a good running locomotive.
