As always, Ken, those are some great looking models. The photo quality is incredible as well! Nicely done.

hi Acflyer31,all are boxed as ho,and run on ho track,below a photo alongside a general ken

its interesting to note that ken kidder advertises wheels for his porter mogul which this is,for hon3,which is for 3ft 6 ins scale modeling and very expensive,where as hon30 is narrow gauge using n gauge track and the cheaper route to take

found out the westside class a climax is a factory painted item,ken
http://www.trainmaster.ch/X-969.htm
the fulgurex had a nice finish to body,but the chassis was and is brass,might at some point finish painting chassis but for now,the steam chest was grey and looked odd so have painted that black

The "no" part is what I seem to have the most trouble with. Not sure why...

I have managed, through selling ho trains on eBay, to pay for the enhancement of my collection. My wife does not allow a single dime to come from the family budget to go to either my trains or my Mustangs.

Kids first too though... I'd sell every train I have if I had to.
