I was bidding on one of the last ones listed as there were several - One of the last ones sold for over $40.00 - I've got these in my watch - may bid on them if it doesn't get crazy

RAY : Have you ever attempted to run those 2 as a pair, doubleheaded. With the two different drives, I wonder what would happen. You should have though up a price and offered them here. Also when you listed them, did you note that one had the Rivarossi drive.

I should clarify I'm not the guy selling them, as a matter of fact brianstyco if you was bidding against the last one....that was me pushing the bid up as I was buying!
I don't want to put any mystique behind this loco but I think it's already considered the holy grail of tyco engines 
Frank, thought of the idea, but my dual PT motored 630 died on me the day before I saw the Riv drive!
