Since there isn't one I may as well start with my $10 find from a garage sale hehe
I got the whole set which includes 2 passenger cars, track & transformer
I believe this is the 2nd release set as it only has 2 passenger cars while the original had 3 
Tested loco runs great It missing the hooks on a few of the couplers

my hogwarts by hornby which is oo ken
if you look at both the locos you will see a difference between them,bachmanns is the correct one,they used a hall class loco whereas hornby used a castle class but both got it wrong as regards locos name it was olton hall in the movies

Hey Ken Wouldn't the Bachmann one be tecnically OO scale? Loco with tender is bigger than the UP & RI SD 40-2s I has
The only thing I'm missing from the loco is the sign that goes on the front. a few hook for the couplers & one buffer on passenger car 
Now if I could only get a UK Bachmann Peppercorn loco, Duck or Thomas THEN I'd be happy

Well I finally did it. My loco for the week is a sound unit which I have been wanting for some time but thought the price was too outrageous. Not that I can't afford it but why pay 200 dollars for an engine when you can get a whole lot more stuff for that amount right?
Well, so much for that. SD-45 Genesis with Sound.
If you are not having fun, you are not doing it right.

My LOTW is a Rivarossi 0-4-0 docksider, B & O, got it at an antique show in March. Back roof is broken off some, but otherwise in passable shape.
