I watched alittle over a MINUTE and JUST can't DO it! Those prices make me sick in the New England area, those would be going for way over $100 here! The Athearn units, with the "Athearn" logo on them.. DAMN! I hope to God, you bought both the SW-155 and Caboose along with the GP38-2/40-2........That price is rediculous!

Damn! That was an Athearn Dual-Drive clear shelled demonstrator unit! Missing some steps, and it looks like some of the pilot too, but do you know what the seller was asking?

The shows/ swap meets we get over here on the West Coast don't come no where close to what you show in the video. 35 bucks for that Athearn switcher with Caboose...are you kidding me?
If you are not having fun, you are not doing it right.
